  2. Channel Catfish I like to eat crayfish, insects, snails, small clams, worms, fish, and the seeds of elm and silver maple trees. The world record for me is 59 pounds. I can be caught by a technique called “noodling.” My whiskers are called barbels. I am a “cat”, but I don’t “meow”. Do you know who I am? Who am I?

  3. Chipmunk Thirteen-lined Ground Squirrel I am sometimes called a "Federation Squirrel" because of the pattern on my back and sides which looks like stars and stripes. My heartbeat changes when I’m hibernating from 350 beats per minute to 5. I make three types of burrows – hiding, nesting, and hibernating. I am often mistaken for a chipmunk, which has white stripes bordered with black on its back and face. Do you know who I am? Who am I? http://www.dnr.state.wi.us/org/caer/ce/eek/critter/index.htm

  4. Peregrine Falcon I can be found on every continent except for Antarctica. My name means wanderer and I have one of the longest migrations of any North American bird. I have a black cap, sideburns, a blue beak, and yellow feet. I am the fastest animal on Earth traveling as fast as 200 mph. Do you know who I am?
