Hi, Russ. How does the human body react when a person eats something they are allergic to?
Adalina & Lily
Good question, Adalina and Lily. People react differently to foods they are allergic to. Some reactions include swelling, redness, itching, stuffy nose, or watery, red eyes. Someone might also throw up, get a stomach ache, or even have a hard time breathing.

Hi, I'm Eli. Can you tell me more about wolves please?
Eli
Hi, Eli! I can definitely tell you some facts about wolves! Did you know wolves live in groups called packs? These packs can include anywhere from 2 to more than 30 wolves. However, most packs have 5–8 wolves. In the wild, wolves can live up to 13 years. And wolves have 42 teeth! 🐺

Hi, Russ! You know there is a virus right now, but I don't know much about it. Can you tell me?

Hi, Russ! I’m Anamika. Is Mount Everest the actual tallest mountain on Earth?
Anamika
The answer is a little tricky, Anamika! Mount Everest is the tallest mountain that is above sea level. But if you measure from the very bottom to the top, Mauna Kea is actually taller! That mountain is in Hawaii. Part of Mauna Kea is underwater. Because of this, the mountain's peak does not reach as high into the sky as Mount Everest does. ⛰️
