Do porcelain crowns on front teeth look natural?
Yes they do and they are "caps" (crowns are for the molars.) I just spent $12,000 on my teeth and had the front ones capped as well as the bottom front and the rest bonded. You can't tell they aren't your real teeth. Remember, even though the teeth are capped you have to go in for dental check-ups because you can still get cavities.

If there are 500 sheep 2 sheep dogs and 5 foxes how many sheep will there be left?
The simple answer would be : none eventually with three foxes eating them up. But the joke answer would be : 500. Wolves, not foxes, eat sheep! Five foxes are no match for two good sheepdogs. Most foxes are too small to pose much of a threat to a sheep, preferring smaller prey. The whole pack could eat for a week on one kill. But assuming lazy sheepdogs and overly-aggressive foxes and no new sheep from breeding, there will be no sheep left after about 10 years.
Not all of the energy from the sun captured by the grass is efficiently transferred to the prairie dogs due to energy losses at each trophic level. This is known as the 10% rule, where only about 10% of the energy is passed on to the next trophic level. Energy is lost as heat during metabolism, movement, growth, and other life processes, leading to inefficiencies in energy transfer along the food chain.
What does a prairie dog survive bad weather?
I am gonna take this as HOW does a prairie dog (PD) survive bad weather....
They live in tunnels. When it rains, the water will get in there, but there tunnels are so extensive that they are able to find dry areas in there. Of course that doesn't mean a tornado can't suck them out or that they are immune to lightning strikes.
