Hawaiian Monk Seal

I was eating Breakfast, looking at the ocean and what did I see, an Endangered Hawaiian Monk Seal swimming by.  Check out the video of the `Ilio holo I ka uaua', which means, "dog that runs in rough water."


What kind of writings could you have students do on such a video? Compare and contrast to animals they see on land? Could they write a story or an essay about a Monk Seal, or Endangered Animals? How does an animal become Endangered?
