A New species Found
Grinshark has Healing Power
Scientists have studied the behavior of
Grinsharks in captivity for multiple years. they have studied these particular
sharks in three different environments. They found out the Grinshark remained
well-connected in each new habitat. The Grinshark all spread happy energy
directly to any individual. The Grinshark's smile holds the healing power
to transform the surrounding into love and purifies the negative energy.
Ms. Hsieh's Big Idea: I am a vegetarian so I created a shark with human teeth
and zebra patterns to make the shark vegetarian too. My idea is to wish for a
harmony world, no killing and harm. Peace is spreading from the outer space to
the earth and to the water. Peace is for all sentient beings including people
and animals. When the Grinshark smiles at the diver, it changes the energy from
fear to happiness. So this head line of this news is:

WHAT
HAPPENS WHEN JACKALOPES ATTACK?!?
Ms. Carbone said:
What’s a JACKALOPE?
It is an imaginary animal “native” to North
America that is a rabbit with antelope horns… go ahead and look them up, you
can find tons of photoshopped images of them on the internet that make them
look real. Really real.
Hybrid mythical animals are popular in many
cultures; just think of dragons, chimeras, griffins and mermaids!
