Hi! I'm wondering if you can make an article about Plattsburgh, New York. There's a lot of stuff, like the War of 1812.
Ryan
Hi, Ryan! That sounds like an interesting topic. Can you tell me more about Plattsburgh and its role in the War of 1812?

We all have to be safe when we are swimming. 1. Learn how to swim. 2. Stay with your family. 3. Do Not Run!!! You can slip and fall into the water. Be safe, please!!!!!!!
Michelle
You are absolutely correct, Michelle! We have to be safe while we are swimming. It sounds like you read News-O-Matic's article "Stay Smart, Swim Safe!" I think it's great that you want to be safe around the water. 🏊

Hey, Russ. Can you tell all of the types of frogs? Please.
Juliana
Hey, Juliana! I cannot tell you all of the types of frogs. There are more than 5,000 known frog species! I don't know all of those species. There are many sizes and colors of frogs. Some make their homes in trees, while others dig in the ground. Some live in very wet places, while others live in very dry places. Frogs can be found on every continent on the planet except Antarctica! 🐸

Hi, Russ~

Hey, Russ! I’m here again! I have a question: Would the world be different if the extinct animals were still here?
Lily
Hey, Lily! That's an interesting question. I think the world would be different if extinct animals were still here. Each animal species changes their ecosystems by eating different animals or plants and building different homes. What do you think?
Russell Kahn
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! 🐺
Russell Kahn

Hi, Russ! What are vaquitas?

Hi, Lily. Vaquitas are small, dolphin-like mammals. They only live in the northern Gulf of California. Experts believe there are fewer than 15 left. You can read more about them in News-O-Matic's article "The Rarest Sea Creature."

I hope that the people on the ship that has a virus get saved. I bet they're scared.
Theodore
I hope everyone on the ship stays safe too, Theodore. And I agree with you, I bet that is a scary situation. That's why I'm so glad there are world leaders, virus experts, and doctors who are all working together to make sure the people on the ship get taken care of!
