Whilst we were going through the forest, suddenly out of the blue (=unexpectedly) we saw this fox and I didn’t know there were foxes in that forest, but there you go, lo and behold, (=used to present a new and surprising situation) there it was. Well, it’s an interesting question because I live in the city, so I don’t get a lot of access to wild animals, as you can imagine.īut I do remember once when we were out trekking in the mountains, we went through a forest, it’s not far from where I live, actually.
Keith, tell us about a time when you saw a wild animal? Zoos can help us understand the biodiversity on our planet I think zoos are good to provide favorable conditions to endangered species and so help save them. It’s good to keep some of the animals in zoos, as otherwise their predators will eat them and their numbers will decrease. Well, It really depends on how well zoos are managed, and how much protection can be provided to the animals. I think, if workers treat animals kindly, zoos are good. That said, we should protect the natural habitats where the endangered species live. Zoos can be good for educational purposes to let children know about a wide range of animals.
Zoos pose a risk, if animals can escape, they can harm people. Some zoos abuse animals, for example, training elephants for They might be good for people but if we think of animals, zoos limit their activities and natural way of spending their life.īy keeping animals cooped up (= in a small cage), there are more chances of extinction, as they don’t get the conditions they need to mate and reproduce.īy keeping animals in captivity, ecosystems can be badly affected.

If you are not sure about your opinion, you could say…Ĭages and living conditions are too cramped wild animals need liberty and freedom.Īnimals lose their instincts, for example how to hunt, and often become depressed. Kangaroo, Koala, wombats, platypus, possums, wallabiesĪnimals that eat other animals are called predatorsĪs you can see from the poll in our lesson, this is a hotly debated issue. Marsupials (n.) – the young lives in a pouch (native to Australia)Į.g. Mammals (n.) are warm-blooded, and the young feed on milk…Į.g. Herbivores (n.) = animals that eat plants We can protect animals from poaching ( =illegal hunting)
In a conservation/natural/safari park animals are allowed to roam (=to walk without direction) freely They are on the verge of extinction = about to become extinct They are on the brink of extinction (n.) = about to become extinct To become / be extinct (adj.) = to disappear, no longer exist I was the teacher’s pet = the teacher’s favourite I have a pet hate, people speaking whilst eating =something I hate a lot When talking about animals you like, the most common mistake is to use the singular, but if you are talking about this animal in general, you should use the plural.
