Tonga vs Japan

Hooray!!! Tonga vs Japan.In the first 4 minutes Tonga scored a try.My Family was surprised when Tonga got a try.Every time Tonga got a try my Grandpa got up and clapped very fast.Too bad my mum didn't get to watch the match because every weekdays she's at work.I couldn't sleep for the past 5 minutes because my Grandpa was always shouting to the t.v ''Run faster Tonga get those legs going come on.'' At least Tonga won the game for the first time.While we were watching people cheering for Tonga I saw my Aunt,Uncle and my little cousin.

The NZ Giant Weta


The Mahoenui Reserve in Waikato Region has some NZ Giant weta.They have an exoskeleton that seems like a suit of armor.
The wetas are not to be killed by humans and other creatures.
They like to eat Gorse flowers and they like to stay in bushes to hide from their predators.They are over 190 million years old.
Their back legs are adapted to defend themselves and they also have spikes on them to protect them from their predators.There ears are nearly on there knees.
