After lots of research, here are the options. All of these don’t need big cages or terrariums, and you can pick one according to preference. However, some of them are bad options, so it is best to steer clear. I hope you find this research useful.
A ladybug is a good option for a classroom pet. In the wild, ladybugs eat aphids, which aren’t that hard to find, considering that the plants they eat are very popular for gardeners. A ladybug is easy to feed, and “it will eat what it needs.”2 Since it is a bug, it doesn’t need a big habitat. In fact, an ideal habitat would be less than a foot long. Ladybugs will tuck in their head and become unresponsive at night. During the winter, large groups of ladybugs will sleep next to each other, and wake up in the spring, so the teacher should get a group of them a opposed to one. Ladybugs are harmless, they don’t bite or sting people, but, if threatened, they will excrete a yellow substance that is their blood. The stuff doesn’t harm people, either, but it will stain on light colored walls if the ladybug escapes or if there are light colored walls inside its cage. A ladybug will make a good class pet because it is harmless and easy to take care of.

They eat fruits and veggies and live in a bird cage most of the time. They feel safe high up where they can observe daily activities. They should be away from air conditioners, windows, and direct sunlight. Before lights-out, the teacher should dim the lights. This will help the parakeet settle down. When it is time for the parakeet to go to sleep, turn off the lights, but leave on a nightlight for young parakeets, as the darkness scares them. In case the teacher needs to know, young parakeets have stripes on their heads. When the teacher gets a cage, it should be big enough for the bird to spread its wings with room to spare. However, parakeets can bite, and their bites hurt, so it is not a good option for a classroom

I noticed along with the caged birds in the opening of the story the number of bird images throughout. It is Mademoiselle Reisz that tells Edna, “The bird that would soar above the level plain of tradition and prejudice must have strong wings. It is a sad spectacle to see the weaklings bruised, exhausted, fluttering back to earth.’”Edna refers to her new home as “the pigeon-house”. It pleased her. “It at once assumed the intimate character of a home, while she herself invested it with charm which it reflected like a warm glow.
In “A Caged Bird”, it is made clear that this bird has never experienced the freedom of flying with the other species or perching atop the highest building. All it has ever known is the cage in which is has been kept and fed plentifully, yet not punctually, and nurtured with the love of an owner and proper care.
Pit Bulls are without a doubt my favorite dog, I adore them. Pit Bulls are very well tempered, loyal, and resilient animals. Bred for big game hunting, Pit Bulls are strong, fierce animals and people who have the wrong intentions for ownership should never own them. I am a strong believer that a potential pet owner should do lots of research before getting any type of animal, without exception. Owners should do as much research before getting a dog as they do in planning for a new home or any other new family member. One of the main things to really think about and understand is your intentions for your selection of an animal with the breeding of the Pit Bull. If you choose a dog with the wrong intentions, specifically a Pit Bull, you will get a dog that behaves aggressively and is dangerous. This owner behavior is what has caused the current plight of the Pit Bull today, where laws have been passed in thirteen states and hundreds of municipalities, as well as every U. S. Military base, banning the ownership of the breed and forcing shelters to euphonize Pit Bulls within 24 hours. These laws are unjust and cruel, and victimize the breed based on the owners’ behavior. I also argue that the blame for the epidemic proportions that the laws have reached is 100% the fault of owners who purposely acquired the Pit Bull with the intention to abuse and fight the dogs, and that these owners are the ones who should be punished, not the dogs.

After these episodes, the images related to birds are absent form the narrative until the chapter 29. Following the summer on Grand Isle, where she had awakening experiences, she starts to express her desire for independence in New Orleans through her move to her own house, the pigeon house "because it's so small and looks like a pigeon house" (pp 84). The nickname of the pigeon house is very significant because a pigeon house is a place where pigeons, birds that have adapted to and benefited from the human society, are kept cooped up.
Should Pit Bulls be banned? Many people will argue that the pit bull breed should be banned due to its vicious and unpredictable nature. There is a belief that they are inherently evil creatures and that they have a genetic predisposition to be destructive killing machines. In many states and cities, this has brought about breed specific legislation. Breed specific legislation bans or regulates the ownership of specific breeds of dogs, which almost always includes pit bulls.
“No bees, no honey; no work, no money.” Bees are becoming an endangered species due to colony collapse disorder, a colony no longer existing due to a combination of deadly factors. Bees are very important in our lives from making food cheaper to making honey-added in many medicines, foods, and other products. There are a few steps we can take in order to save our honeybees.
The teacher will introduce the book, The Honeybee Man by Lela Nargi and she will ask the class about what they think the book will be about based on the illustrations.

We all have a special sort of love for someone, or something in our life. Well in my case, turtles are what I have a special love for in my life! I have always liked them, ever since I was a little kid around the age of about four or five. The show “Franklin and Friends” would come on and I would be connected with my TV screen until the end of that show, I mean connected! So on with how I like turtles so much!
Today, ferrets are nearly as valuable as canines are. Many individuals are buying this pet since it is definitely fun to own it. They are frivolous domestic pets that have high intelligence. Having a ferret is a thing that you really can enjoy. This friendly animal might not take the place of your dog, but it is a great pet.
They will tear anything up they can get there beak on. They make a lot of noise like screaming and screeching to get attention. Large birds, like amazons, macaws and cockatoos, exhibit their frustration and boredom by screaming, being aggressive (Lichtenberg) They also live a long time a green cheek conure lives from 20- 40 years and if you get a large bird they can live up to 80 or more years. Another thing that is very common in parrots is feather plucking.
When the colony becomes well established, the queen begins to lay some eggs that develop into queens and males. It takes a few years before a colony becomes large enough to send out winged males and young queens to start new colonies. The cycle will now begin all over again. Nests come in all shapes and sizes. One tropical species built a nest that extended forty feet below the surface of the ground.
There are few animals in the world that have as medically significant biology as mosquitoes. Carrying diseases that annually kill thousands, if not millions, of people worldwide, mosquitoes and the way they interact with pathogens are topics of concern for many researchers. As invertebrates, mosquitoes possess various immune responses designed to rid themselves of pathogens. Study of these immune responses has led to a deeper understanding of the ways in which the immune cells of mosquitoes, hemocytes, function and serve the purpose of killing the invasive pathogen. In conjunction with the circulatory system of the mosquito, these immune cells react in various ways upon infection with a pathogen such as a bacterium or virus. The Hillyer Lab
Insect, small, air-breathing animal characterized by a segmented body with three main parts—head, thorax, and abdomen. In their adult forms, insects typically have three pairs of legs, one pair of antennae, and in most instances, two pairs of wings. Insects rank among the most successful animals on Earth. About one million species of insects have been identified so far, which is about half of all the animals known to science. That is why for every pound of human on the earth there are 10 pounds of insects. So that is why there are many reasons why insects are so successful, their exoskeleton, their size, their body function, the way they reproduce, and their development of metamorphosis.
