Who Made It?

Lions are incredibly adaptable animals. They are found in a varied range of habitats. Lions found in the desert, for example, have leaner bodies and longer legs. These lions can survive without eating any food for two weeks! The only place lions don’t live is in the jungle.

A bear's senses are very important to its survival. They have great senses of smell, sight and hearing. A bear can smell food, cubs, a mate or danger from miles away. They also rely on other bears' sense of smell when they mark their territory with urine and droppings. Bears have terrific eyesight, too. It helps them to identify ripe fruit and nuts.

The earliest microscopes were called flea glasses because they were predominantly used to observe small insects such as fleas! These microscopes were simple in construction, using different shapes and sizes of glass with low power (6x to 10x). They were invented by the Romans.
