ANIMALS IN DANGER/THE EARTH IN DANGER

People have lived on our planet for many years. They lived and live on different continents in different countries. People depend on their planet, on the sun, on animals and plants around them.

Many animals and birds on the Earth are disappearing nowadays. Many of them are in danger. Indian tigers and Af­rican elephants are among them. People have hunted and killed many tigers in India and a lot of elephants in Af­rica. Tigers and elephants are often dangerous animals. Tigers can kill domestic animals and sometimes they can also kill men. Some people are afraid of tigers and kill them to save their domestic animals and their lives. But some people have often hunted tigers for fun and for their beautiful skin.

Modern life is bad for animals. The air is not fresh. The water is not clean. For example Lake Baikal is the deepest freshwater lake on the Earth. The lake is very beautiful but now it is in great danger, because of the factories. At some places the water in the lake is so dirty that it can kill animals and plants in Baikal and near it. You can find the names of some animals in the Red Book. Many animals and plants lose their homes because people cut down trees. Modern plants and factories send a lot of smoke into air. This is also very bad, because nowadays it’s difficult to breathe in big cities.

So, the problem now is to protect life on the Earth, to save our planet for people. People must take special care of animals. We must find the right balance between land, people and animals. We must take care of nature!
