This is the song of beauty and the beast in portugues. 3nodding
A Bela e a Fera
Sentimentos são
Fáceis de mudar
Mesmo entre quem
Não vê que alguém
Pode ser seu par
Basta um olhar
Que o outro não espera
Para assustar e até perturbar
Mesmo a Bela e a Fera
Sentimento assim
Sempre é uma surpresa
Quando ele vem
Nada o detém
É uma chama acesa
Sentimentos vêm
Para nos trazer
Novas sensações
Doces emoções
E um novo prazer
E numa estação
Como a primavera
Sentimentos são
Como uma canção
Para a Bela e a Fera
Sentimentos são
Como uma canção
Para a Bela e a Fera

These extinct cats are notable for 2 huge canine teeth among other sharp teeth in powerful jaws. They also had very strong jaw and neck muscles that let them stab prey with their deadly teeth. They ate mammoth, rhinoceros, and other thick-skinned animals. Examples include: Smilodon (the largest and most powerful, from N. America), Hoplophoneus (with short teeth, from the Oligocene), Eusmilus (leopard-sized with very long teeth, from the Oligocene), and Machairodus (lion-sized and common; from the Paleocene). Fossils have been found in Pliocene to early Pleistocene rocks from both North and South America and other Northern continents.

Mammoths (scientific name Mammuthus) are extinct herbivorous mammals that had long, dense hair and underfur, very long tusks, a long proboscis (nose), large ears and lived throughout the world. They lived from about 2 million years ago to 9,000 years ago, millions of years after the dinosaurs went extinct. They are closely related to modern-day Indian elephants (they have common ancestor). Some tusks were straight, some were curved; the longest were up to 13 feet (4 m) long. The tusks were used in mating rituals, for protection, and for digging in the snow for food. Much of our knowledge of mammoths is from cave drawings and from mummified mammoths found in Siberian ice! Mammoths had longer tusks than Mastodons, a wider head, a sloping back, flat, chewing teeth, a trunk with two finger-like projections, and were mostly taller.

Ice Age Mammals
During the last Ice Age, there were many large, interesting mammals, like the saber-toothed cats, giant ground sloths, mastodons, and mammoths. These animals have long since gone extinct and are known mostly from fossils, from frozen, mummified carcasses, and even from ancient cave drawings.
The Last Ice Age
The last Ice Age started about 70,000 years ago and ended about 10,000 years ago (during the Pleistocene epoch). The Earth was much colder than it is now; snow accumulated on much of the land, glaciers and ice sheets extended over large areas and the sea levels were lower. These phenomena changed the surface of the earth, forming lakes, changing the paths of rivers, eroding land, and depositing sand, gravel, and rocks along the glaciers' paths.
What Is a Mammal?
Mammals are animals that have hair, are warm-blooded, and nourish their young with milk. Mammals evolved during the Triassic period, about the same time that the first dinosaurs appeared. Some modern-day mammals include people, apes, cats, dogs, mice, elephants, whales, and horses.
Mammals are advanced synapsids, animals distinguished by having extra openings in the skull behind the eyes; this opening gave the synapsids stronger jaw muscles and jaws (the jaw muscles were anchored to the skull opening). Synapsids include the mammals, and their ancestors, the pelycosaurs, therapsids, and cynodonts. The pelycosaurs (like Dimetrodon and Edaphosaurus) were early synapsids, they were mammal-like reptiles. Later synapsids include the therapsids and the cynodonts (with multicusped post-canine teeth; they lived from the late Permian through the Triassic period). The cynodonts led to the true mammals. Over time, the synapsid gait became more upright and tail length decreased.

stuffed animals
In America, the "teddy bear" reportedly got its start from a cartoon showing President Theodore Roosevelt refusing to shoot a baby bear. According to the tale, Theodore (Teddy) Roosevelt was trying to settle a dispute between that Mississippi and Louisiana and his hosts took him bear hunting. The hunting was so poor that someone finally captured a bear and invited Roosevelt to shoot it. Roosevelt's refusal to fire at such a helpless target inspired a cartoonist to draw his cartoon with its play on the way Roosevelt was drawing a line about refusing to shoot a captive animal.

hamsters
Hamsters are mammals which belong to the rodent family having large incisor teeth that are continually growing necessitating gnawing to prevent the teeth from overgrowing. The word 'rodent' is derived from the latin word 'rodere' which means 'to gnaw'.
Hamsters form the Family Cricetidae which is broken down into different Genera (including Cricetulus, Phodopus and Calomyscus). Within each Genera are various species of hamster. There are many different species of hamsters throughout the world and most hamsters inhabit semi-desert areas where they live in burrows. These burrows consist of many tunnels and separate chambers including chambers where the hamster will store food and sleep. Hamsters are nocturnal, sleeping during the hot days and waking in the cooler evenings. They have very poor eyesight but a keen sense of smell and excellent hearing.
Most species of hamsters have expandable cheekpouches in which they can carry food and bedding back to their burrow where they will store food. The word 'hamster' comes froms the German word 'hamstern' which means 'to hoard'.
Only a few hamster species are widely kept as pets but the hamster is the most popular of the smaller rodents kept as a pet in many countries today.
