Maybe you got the exact toy you wanted for your birthday and you were really happy. Or your friend is sick and you feel sad. Or your little brother messed up your room, so you're really angry! Where do those feelings come from? Your brain, of course. Your brain has a little bunch of cells on each side called the amygdala (say: uh-MIG-duh-luh).
Kodiak Island. Kodiak Island (Alutiiq: Qikertaq, Russian: ÐºÐ°Ð´ÑÑÐºÑ) is a large island on the south coast of the U.S. state of Alaska, separated from the Alaska mainland by the Shelikof Strait.
Climate and Weather. Letâs be honest, few people come to Alaska for the weather. We are a land full of majestic mountains and waters populated by bears, whales, eagles, and heart-stopping scenery, but our weather, especially in Kodiak, can be challenging. The island, a rain forest, receives approximately 70 inches of rain and 70 inches of snow per year.
