Chapter Thirty-three- Biology Question

Although Thestrals do not really exist, there are other animals that, like Thestrals, are attracted to fresh blood. Choose either the vampire bat or the great white shark and learn why they are attracted to blood.

Middle School Bonus- See if you can find any other animals that can sense blood from other animals and make a list of these animals.
