Introduce an endangered animal you know with the help of the following questions.
Introduce an endangered animal you know with the help of the following questions.
答案
One possible version:
Polar bears are one of the strongest animals on land. They live in the cold North Pole. They can weigh up to 600 kilograms and be three metres long. They have white fur, so it is hard to see them in the snow. They have sharp, strong claws which help them to catch and hold their prey. They also have long necks, small heads and large, flat feet. This makes them very strong swimmers.
They are great hunters in the ecosystem. They eat seals and other animals. But now they are in danger because of the global warming. They have less time to hunt on the ice. They have to go into towns looking for rubbish to eat. We should protect them.
