0What Nona said, except with these additions:02br

00I don't think the four species relates to their lack of fear of humans, but it's set up that way. You can make them seperate sentences. Or you can include that bit of information elsewhere in the paragraph, such as by saying "The four species inhabit most of our country..."02br
02br
00You need a comma after "prairies" to finish off that parenthetical comment of "other than the deserts and the praries." And you'll fix the spelling of "especailly" I'm sure.02br
02br
00Also, usually numbers under ten are spelled out - four species, not 4 species. But that's purely a style thing and may not apply.0-
