Animals in Danger

At present a thousand species are almost extinct because we hunt them or damage their environment. Here are some of the animals in danger. The World Wildlife Fund is fighting tosave them.

The French priest, Pierre David, was the first European to see a giant panda in China in 1869. Today the giant panda is one of the rarest species in tbe world. There are perhaps only 300 ofthem left. It likes to live in bamboo forests but these are slowly disappearing.

The giant panda can live for up to 20 years and a big male can weigh 150 kilograms. A new-born panda weighs only 125grams and measures less than 15 centimetres. The female panda is 800 times heavier than the baby at birth and the baby is 3-4 months old before it can crawl. It is pinkish-white at birth without darkmarkings and the familiar black eyes.

Fortunatelly the Chinese government now protects the panda so it should survive. The World Wildlife Fund uses the panda as its symbol.

The story of the whale hasbeen another great wildlife tragedy.Some of these are the largest animals that have ever lived.A blue whale can weigh over 125 tonnes . Whales are mammals,not fish and they are highly intelligent Theysend messages to each other over very long distance with high-piched sound.

Whales are now in great danger because hunters have killed to many of them.Modern ships and machinnes have made it easy tohunt these animals,and they are often killed In a very painful and cruel way.Some countries have agreed to protect the whale,but other have not and still kill too many.
