 * We chose the movie because it was something neither of us has done. We are showing some of the key anmals Lewis and Clark found. Including the rattle snake that almost killed Calrk, and the wolf because they ran into them alot and lewis was attacked by them. We also chose the bear because it took about an hour for them to fully kill one and it was one of the biggest animals they found.**

Lewis' Journal Entry:

//Captain Clark// narrowly escaped being bitten by a rattlesnake in the course of his walk. The party killed one this evening at our encampment which, he informed me, was similar to that he had seen. This snake is smaller than those common to the //Middle Atlantic States//, being about 2 feet 6 inches

Captain Clark informed me that he saw a large drove of buffalo pursued by wolves today; that they at length caught a calf which was unable to keep up with the herd. The cows only defend their young so long as they are able to keep up with the herd, and seldom return any distance in search of them.
