Does a cactus live for 200 years?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A cactus like plant is a succulent. The succulent Agave americana has the common name of century plant. The name comes from the mistaken notion that the plant flowers once it turns 100 years old. In actuality, the plant may bloom any time after it's 10 years old. Additionally, it tends to have a life expectancy of only 28 years.

How do arctic wolves adapt to the arctic tundra?

Asked by Wiki User

They have powerful legs to run long distances as well as claws to grip ice and flesh, tear, and rip. Their sense of smell is a lot stronger than human's are. So are their hearing skills. They have dense thick fur that protects them from the cold. The color camouflages them from any enemies or unsuspecting prey.

What is the life cycle of the Arctic wolf?

Asked by Wiki User

arctic wolves live to 10-20 years and Arctic wolves use there howl to locate the other wolves.
Wolves in the wild seldom live more than 8 or 10 years, this is true for arctic wolves as well.

In captivity maybe twice as long.
Artic Wolfs live up too the Age of 15/20 :)
It depends where the wolf is. If it is in the wild, it usually lives from 5-10 years, but if the wolf is in a zoo, it can live for up to 14 years.
They live 7 - 15 years in the wild but average 8 - 12 years in the wild and are 12 years and up in captivity.

Asked by Wiki User

An Arctic Wolf code is a code you can get from an Animal Jam gift card from Wal-Mart. The card comes with the code which gives you the ability to purchase an Arctic Wolf. And it gives you 3 month membership, and 15,000 gems! It's around 15-16 dollars in the United States. I have all three. The other ones are: Lion cards, and Snow Leopard cards. They all come with different animals, the lion pack comes with a free castle den too!

Why do gray wolves live i boreal forest?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It has to eat the blue-berries, not the green ones. if it eats the green ones, the whole forest will be filled with microwavable radiation, and all the bunnies and tundra kittens will be killed. I suggest to all grey wolves that they keep clear of trees. its very unsafe for their health.

How does an Arctic wolf survive in its environment?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Animals do not consciously adapt to their environment. Adaptations come about through mutant variations, most of which are detrimental. However, occasionally a mutation will be beneficial and allow the creature to survive more easily. Such a creature has more chances to procreate and pass on the successful mutation or gene.

How do you care for a mother who has lost all of her pups?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Oh, this is so sad! I'm sorry she lost all of her pups. She will have to go through a grieving process. She will usually get over it quick. If she has good milk and she was not the reason for the pups to die, then you might see if there is a rescue or shelter in your area that have orphaned pups needing a mom. Sometimes it works out that way. If not, give her plenty of attention. Do not give her too much food. If her milk does not dry up then she could get a very bad and painful infection. Many breeders will drastically cut the dog's food at this time. I think that is too much. In my experience, just cut back to adult food (not puppy food), and give her just a little less than her normal (non-pregnant, non nursing) food would be. For example, if she normally ate about 3 cups of dry food a day before she was pregnant, then try giving her two. I would not go lower than two unless she is really full with milk and uncomfortable and the 2 cups did not help. You can also try calling to see if the vet would want to give her a shot that can help her get through this a little faster. Watch for signs of infection -- infection in the milk glands is the main concern. Feel every day, twice a day at least, to look for signs of infection: heat, redness, swelling, lumps. Sometimes all there is is a hard lump, other times the dog's teats will feel very hot all over or in certain places -- she can get an infection in just one gland, not usually in all of them. Other times she may have a fever. YOu can take her temperature with a normal (human) rectal thermometer. Use a little vaseline or K-Y jelly to make it easier for your dog, and have someone hold her still so she cannot hurt herself or you. Don't do this if your dog is not gentle with being handled in delicate places. Her temperature is normal at around 101., anywhere between 100.5 and 101.5 -- I would call the vet if it goes up to 102 at home. A fever indicates an infection and must be treated by a veterinarian asap.

Your love and attention is what she needs to get over the loss of the pups, but your nursing care is very important to be sure she doesn't get very sick from making too much milk that isn't being used by her pups, or by having a uterine infection.
