In the past, the two (2) species of Duck were seperated by different habitat preferences, with the American Black Duck preferring forested locations, while the Mallard Duck favoring more open habitats. Over the years, these habitats became less distinct as the East was deforested and trees were planted in the Midwest. As a result, there are many hybrids between the two (2) species. It has also been argued that the introduction of Mallards to various area in the East has further increased interbreeding. The American Black Duck breeds throughout area in the Northern part of it's range.
The American Black Duck nests in Eastern Canada and adjacent areas in the US in a variety of habitats, including Northerly and mixed hardwood forests, wooded uplands, bogs, salt- and freshwater marshes and on islands. Resident in the Central part of its range, but has large numbers that Winter in saltwater marshes.

Bird: Gadwall
Original Animal Characterististics:
Description: The Gadwell is a species of Duck, that, even though it has a somewhat somber appearance, many Birders consider it to be one (1) of North America's most elegant species BECAUSE of the subtlety of it's plummage. Despite being common and widespread, Gadwalls are often overlooked because of their retiring behaviour and relatively quiet vocalizations. It has the nickname of the "Dabbling Duck", and is smaller and more delicate then the Mallard, with the Female Gadwalls often being mistaken for Female Mallards. The Gadwalls tend to associate with other species, especially during the winter months.
They range from the Western Prairie pothole country of Canada and the Northern US. The Gadwall's range has expanded as it has adapted to man-made bodies of water, such as reserviors and ponds. During the Winter months, the Gadwall is mostly found on lakes, marshes and along rivers.
The Gadwall's nest in Bowl nests that is made out of plant material that is located in a Scrape. They lay from 8 to 12 Eggs from April to August.

Bird (Duck): Greater Scaup
Original Animal Characterististics:
Description: The Greater Scaup is great swimmer and diver, and is the only species of Diving Duck that breeds in both North America and Eurasia. Due to its more restriced coastal breeding and wintering habitat preference, it's far less numerous in North America than it's close relative, the Lesser Scaup. The Greater Scaup tends to form large flocks, that tend to be segregated by being either Male or Female,, outside of the breeding season. If both Scaup species are present together, they will also segregate within the flocks according to species.
The majority tends to breed in Western coastal Alaska on Tundra wetlands, along with being in lower densities in Northwest and Eastern Canada. Almost all members of the species winter offshore, along the Atlantic and Pacific coasts, or on the Great lakes due to increased food availability. Small groups are sometimes found inland and midcontinent, on unfrozen water bodies.
The nests tend to be simle depressions that are lined with grasses and down, with the sites needing to have a dense cover of vegitation from previous years. The Greater Scaup tends to lay anywhere from 6 to 10 Eggs between the months of May and September.
Size Level: 3.
Length: 15 to 22 Inches (38 to 56 Cm.).

Bird (Duck): Lesser Scaup
Original Animal Characterististics:
Description: The Lesser Scaup is far more numerous than its larger relative, even though their size and weight ranges overlap, and is the most abundant species of Diving Duck in North America. The two (2) species are very similar in appearance and are best identified by shape. Identification MUST be done cautiously as head shape changes with position. For example, the Crown Feathers are flattened just before diving, thusly, Scaups are best identified when they're not moving.
The Lesser Scaup breeds inland from Alska to Eastern Canada in open Northern forests and forest tundra, with most farther North. They tend to winter in the Caribbean, the Southern portions of the US and South, through Central America, and the Nothern portions of South America. The majority winters along coasts, while others winter inland on lakes and reserviors.
The Lesser Scaups tend to have nests built in tall vegitation or under shrubs, sometimes far from water, along with on islands and mats of floating vegitaion. They tend to lay anywhere from 8 to 11 Eggs during the months of May to September.

Description: The Mallard is the most familiar of all Duck species, occuring all across the Northern Hemisphere. It is the ancestor to most domesticated species of Ducks, with Hybreds betwenn the wild and domestic species of Duck are fequently in city lakes and ponds. These Hybreds are often seen with patches of white on their breasts. Mating amongst Mallard Ducks is often a violent affair. But outside the mating season, the wild species of Mallard Duck is strongly migratory and gregarious, sometimes forming into large Flocks that may join with other species.
The Mallard Duck occurs throughout the region, choosing shallow water in natural wetlands, such as marshes, prairie potholes, ponds and ditches. They can also be found in man-made habitats, such as city parks and reserviors, but preferring more open habitats during the winter months.
The Mallards nest in Scrapes lined with plant matter, usually near water, but often in floating vegitation. They tend to lay from 6 to 15 Eggs, during the months of Febuary to September.

When sitting on the top of the water, it tends to hold its head high, making it look almost regal.
The Ring-Necked Duck tends to breed across Canada, South of the Arctic Zone, in shallow freshwater marshes and bogs. It is seen, albeit sporadically, in the Western portions of the US. It has a tendancy to Winter in freshwater and brakish habitats, such as swamps, lakes, estuaries, reservoirs, and flooded fields. Migrants are found in the MidWest, near stands of Wild Rice.

Bird (Duck): Surf Scoter
Original Animal Characterististics:
Description: The Surf Scoter is one (1) of three (3) known species of Scoter in North America. They migrate up and down both coasts, often with the other species. The Surf Scoter takes its name from the way it dives for Mullusks on the Ocean floor, located in shallow coastal waters, through heavy surf. Groups of Surf Scoters have a tendancy to dive and resurface in unison. Members of Black and Surf Scoters can be difficult to tell apart, this is due to the fact that both have all-black wings. Although, the underside of the Surf Scoters wings are uniform black, whereas the Black Scoter has gray flight feathers, which has a tendancy to contrast with its black underwing feathers.
The nests of Surf Scoters are located on lake islands in forested regions of Interior Alaska and Northern Canada. The Nonbreeders, in summer, and adults, in winter, are strictly Coastal, with numbers decreasing from the North to the South along the Pacific Coast. In the East, most Surf Scoters tend to overwinter in the Mid-Atlantic Coast Region.
The Surf Scoter tend to nest in ground-based nests that are lined with both down and vegitation, in brushy tundra. The nests are often located under low hanging branches of a Conifer Tree. They lay from 5 to 10 Eggs between the months of May and September.

Bird (Duck): White-Winged Scoter
Original Animal Characterististics:
Description: The White-Winged Scoter is the largest of the three (3) Subspecies of North American Scoters. When visible, the White wing patch makes the identification of the species easy. Female White-Winged Scoters are quite similar to immature male and female Surf Scoters, and can be identified by the shape of the head, the extent of the Beak/Bill feathering, and the shape of the White areas on the face. When Diving, this Scoter leaps forward and up, arching its neck, and opens its wings when entering the water. While underwater, White-Winged Scoters open their wings in order to propel and stabalize themselves.
The majority of the White-Winged Scoters have a tendancy to breed in dense colonies in the interior of Alaska and Western Canada on freshwater or brackish lakes or ponds, and sometimes on saltwater lakes. They tend to Winter on both Coasts in large Bays, Inlets and Estuaries. Rarely do they Winter inland, with the exception of the Great Lakes.
They tend to nest in depressions that are located in dense thickets and are lined with twigs and down. they lay anywhere from 8 to 9 Eggs between the months of June to September.

Bird: Trumpeter Swan
Original Animal Characterististics:
Description: The Trumpeter Swan is North America's quintessential Swan and the heviest Waterfowl, and is a magnificent sight to behold. The Trumpeter Swan made a remarkable comeback after its numbers were severely reduced by hunting in the 1600 to 1800's. By the mid-1930's, fewer then 100 were known to exist. As such, active reintroduction efforts were made in the Upper Midwest and Ontario to re-establish the species to it's former breeding range and habitat.
Alaskan and Northern Canadian breeders tend to go South during the Winter months, while others tend to remain year round at local places, such as Yellowstone National Park. It is found on freashwater lakes and marshes with plenty of vegitation on which to feed. It is also found in Estuaries in the Winter.
Its nest consistsof a large mound made of plant matter on raised area near or in freashwater. It lays from 3 to6 Eggs between the months of April and September.
Size Level: 6.
Length: 4 1/2 to 5 Feet (1.3 to 1.5 Metres).

The Red Wolf was likely the first species of New World Wolf encountered by European Colonists, being originally distributed throughout the Eastern United States, from the Atlantic Ocean to Texas, and in the North from Ohio River Valley, Northern Pennsylvania and the Southern portion of New York South to New Mexico. The Red Wolf almost went extinct by themid-1900's due to a number of factor, such as aggressive predator control programs and extensive Hybridization with Coyotes.
It was eventually concluded that the Red Wolf is a distinctive species, essentially diverging from the Coyote, alongside the closely related EasterWolf, some 150,000 to 300,000 years ago.

Canine: Island Fox
Original Animal Characteristics:
Description: The Island Fox is a species of Fox that is native to six (6) out of the eight (8) Islands in the Channel Islands chain off the Coast of California. There are six (6) sub-species of Island Fox, each of which is unique to the Iland that it lives on, which is reflected in it's evolutionary history. It has a number of other names, such as The Channel Island Fox, the California Channel Island Fox and the Coast Fox.
The Island Fox has the same genus as the Gray Fox that lives on the mainland, and from which it's decsended from. The reason for it's small size is due to Insular Dwarfism, and due to it being geographically isolated, it has NO immunity to diseases and parasites that arebrought from the mainland. They are particularly vulnerable to those that are carried by the Domestic Dogs.
In addition, due to predation from Golden Eagles and Human activities have devistated Foxnumbers on a number of the Channel Islands during the 1990's. Due to this, four (4) sub-species have become protected as Endagered Species.

And for the final one of this batch:

Horse (Ancient): Anchitherium
Original Animal Characterististics:
Description: The Anchitherium lived throughout Eurasia and North America, but is well known in Europe and the USA. It lived during the Miocene (from 23.03 to 5.3 Million Years Ago). It is distinct from other Equinoids in a number of factors, such as it's size and the fact that it had three- (3) toed feet. When the Anchitherium disappeared, it did so without leaving any modern descendants and was due to the fact of Plains-like environments started to cover the morearea of the globe. It was known to be a browser of plants instead of grazing on grass. Due to this, the spread of Plains saw the Anchitherium being faced with ever decreasing amout of habitat that was suitable to it's survival.
With the advent of E.G.G.'s and the invention of Gene-Tech, many scientists that studied evolution of Mammals, with Horses and Equinids being at the forefront. After some fine tuning of the technology, some scientists and entrepenuers decided that it wold be an interesting concept to clone the Anchitherium. These specimens were then used in petting zoo's and as pets.
But, when the Crash happened and the various animal species started to mutate and Humanity started to die out, the various domesticated animals (along with those in zoo's and labratories) managed to escape into the wilds. Fortunately, the Anchitherium stuck around to areas that they were most familiar with in large groups. These area's included small parks and large swathsof forested area's where they were most comfortablewith. As time went on, and they were mutating into more and more Humanoid forms, the Anchitherium became known to be a unique form of druid that studied both the natural world around them and more modern societies.

While the wings of the Common Goldeneye creates a whirring sound while in flight, the wings of the Bufflehead do not. The Northern limit of the Bufflehead's breeding range has a tendancy to correspond to that of the Northern Flicker, as the Ducks nest in abandoned Flicker Cavities.
The Bufflehead breeds in forests that range from Alaska to Eastern Canada, along with in woodlands, near small lakes and permanent ponds, where the young are raised. They Winter largely along both of the Pacific and Atlantic Coasts with lower densities scattered across the Continent, South to Northern Mexico and with some located in Bermuda.

Bird (Duck): Common Goldeneye
Original Animal Characterististics:
Description: The Common Goldeneye closely resembles Barrow's Goldeneye. They are found in both North America and Eurasia, and is a species of Medium-sized, compact, Diving Duck. The CommonGoldeneye is aggressive and is VERY competitive with other members of it's own species, as well as other species of cavity-nesting Ducks. It has a tendancy to lay its Eggs in the nests of other species, a behavior that is almost parasitic in nature. Before itdives, the Common Goldeneye flattens its feathers in preparation for underwater foraging. Also, the female's head changes shape according to her posture.
The Common Goldeneye breeds along Wetlands, Lakes and Rivers with clear water in Northern Forests where large trees provide appropriate nest cavities. They tend to Winter across the Continent, with the highest densities located from North New England to the Mid-Atlantic on coastal Bays and in the West from coastal SouthEast portion of Alaska to British Columbia in Canada.
The Common Goldeneye is a cavity nester, nesting in holes that are made by othrBird species, which include the Pileated Woodprckers, in broken braches or hollow trees. They also use nest boxes. They lay from between 4 to 13 Eggs during the months of April to September.

The Common Merganser breeds in the Northerly forests, ranging from Alaska to Newfoundland. It Winters South to North Central Mexico. Being a very hardy species ofBird, it will Winter farther North than most other species of Waterfowl, so long as water remains open. The Common Merganser has a preferance to freashwater locations to saltwater locations.

Bird (Duck): Ruddy Duck
Original Animal Characterististics:
Description: The Ruddy Duck is small and stiff-tailed, and is comical in both it's appearance and behavior. Both males and females often hold their tail in a cocked /raised position, especially when sleeping. During courtship displays, the male points it's long tail skyward while it rapidly thumps its elenctric blue Bill/Beak against its chest, and ending its performance with a odd, bubbling sound. In another display, males make a popping sound by slapping their feet on the surface of the water. Due to the position of it's feet and legs, with them being far back on the body, makes the Ruddy Duck an excellent swimmer and diver, however, because of this, on land it is perhaps one (1) of the most awkward species of Diving Duck. Female Ruddy Ducks are known to push themselves along the gound instead of walking.
TheRuddy Duck breeds in the Prairie Pothole region in wetland habitats, marshes, ponds, reserviors, and other open, shallow water with emergent vegitation and open areas. The majority tend to Winter in freashwater habitats, ranging from ponds to large lakes, with smaller numbers found in brackish coastal marshes, bays and estuaries.
The Ruddy Duck tends to nest in a platform, bowl-shaped nest built over water in thick emergent vegitation, and rarely are the nests located on land. They lay from6to 10 Eggs during the months of May to September.
Size Level: 3.
Length: 14 to 17 Inches (35 to 43 Cm).
Wingspan: 22 to 26 Inches (56 to 62 Cm).

Evidence shows that, occasionally, it interbreeds with its closest relaticve, the Yellow-Billed Loon, in addition to the Arctic and Pacific Loons. The Common Loon is the Provincial Bird of Ontario, Canada.
The Common Loon breeds across North America, from Canada to the Northern portions of the US. It Winters on large, ice-free lakes in Canada and the US, along with the Pacific and Atlantic Coasts, South to Baja, California, on the West Coast, and Florida, on the East Coast.

Bird (Loon): Pacific Loon
Original Animal Characterististics:
Description: Although the Paific Loon has a Breeding Range that is about a third (1/3) that of the Common Loon, it is believed to be THE mos abundant Loon species in North America. It shares its habitat in Northern Alaska with the nearly identical, but slightly larger and darker, Arctic Loon. It is a conspicuous migrant Bird species along the Pacific Coast during the Spring, but disappears to its remote Breeding grounds during the Summer. The Pacific Loon is an expert Diver and Swimmer, it is capable of remaining underwater for sustained periods of time, usually while in persuit of Fish. However, due to its terrestrial nesting site, the Chicks ar vulnerable toa number of Mammalian and Avian Predators.
The Pacific Loon breeds across the Arctic and Sub-Arctic of North America, ranging from Alaska and Northern Canada to the Hudson Bay and on some of the Island sf the Canadian Arctic, Tundra lakes and Muskeg. There are even small numbers of the Pacific Loon on the Great Lakes and the East Coast from Quebec to Florida.
They nest in simple Scrapes located in flat areas that are close to water, and have mud and vegitation added during the incubation period. The Pacific Loon lays between 1 and 2 Eggs during the months of June and July.

Original Animal Characterististics:
Description: The Red-Throated Loon, even when seen from a distance, is elegant and is almost unmistakable, with its pale, slim body, upward tilted head, and thin, upturned Bill/Beak. Unlike other species of Lons, the Red-Throated Loon is capable of leaping/juming straight into the air, although most of the time it needs a "runway" of sorts. Also, the Red-Throated Loon has an elaborate breeding ritual, which mainly consists of a pair of birds being side by side and racing across the surface of the water. Downy chicks have a tendancy to climb onto their parents back, although, this only happens when the chicks are young.
The Red-Throated Loon lives in open areas withing Boreal forests, Muskeg, and Tundra; which is located in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago. They sometimes also live in areas that are almost devoid of Vegitation. They tend to Winter on the Great Lakes, along with both Coasts Southwards to Florida, on the East Coast, and Northern Mexico, on the West Coast.
The Red-Throated Loon nests in Scrape with mud and vegitation during the incubation of the Eggs. The nests are located at the waters edge in Coastal and Lake Bays, along with shallow Ponds, and often at high altitudes. They lay 2 Eggs between the months of April and July.

The Yellow-Billed Loons have more rugged proportions then other species of Loons, such as their feet, for example, extend farther away from their bodies then those of other species of Loon.
The Yellow-Billed Loon breeding range is from the extreme Northern edge of Alaska to the Eastern portion of the NorthWest Territories and Nunavut. It also breeds i the Northern portion of Siberia. It Winter along the Pacific Coast of Alaska and British Columbia, and has also been sighted in a number of US States.

Author's Notes:
Grebes:
Grebes area species of Bird that resemble Loons and share many of the same aquatic habits with them. They are unrelated in both their anatomical and molecular features, in effect, placing them in a different order: the Podicpediformes. The bodies of Grebes are streamlined, which offers little resistance when they'r diving or swimming. While underwater, their primary means of propulsion is the sideways motion of their lobed toes. Their legs areplaced far back on their bodies, which helps the Bird when they are swimming above or below the surface of the water.
Grebes tend to have short tails, while letting their legs and toes trail behind them, which in turn effectivly allowing them to act as rudders when in flight. Also, due to the position of their legs makes it impossible to stand upright for long periods of time or to walk on land.

Bird (Grebes): Clark's Grebe
Original Animal Characterististics:
Description: The Clark's and Western Grebes are closely related and are very difficult to distinguish from one another. They rarely fly, except when migrating at night. Also, both species seldom come to land, where their movements are awkward, which is due tothe fact that their legs and toes are located so far back on their bodies. Although, they have been reported to run upright at a rapid pace. Their flightmuscles tend to suffer from wastage after their arrival on the breeding grounds, which also tends to inhibit their ability to travel, but during the incubation period of the Eggs the adults may feed several Miles from the colony by following continious water trails.
The Clark's Grebe breeds freashwater lakes and marshes with open water that is bordered by emergent vegitation. They are rarely located in tidewater marshes, and has been seen nesting in man-made Lake Havasu marshes since the 1960's. It Winters along the Pacific Coast, along with in bays and estuaries located throughout the Southwest US and Mexico.
They nest on floating piles of available plants that are atteched to thick growths of submerged vegitation. They also occasionally have nests that are constructed on land.They lay between 2 and 3 Eggs, during the months of May and July.
