Животные в опасности
Люди живут на нашей планете уже много лет. Они жили и живут на разных континентах и в разных странах. Люди зависят от своей планеты, от солнца, от животных и растений вокруг них. Сегодня давайте прочтём и поговорим о некоторых животных на нашей планете.
Многие виды животных и птиц исчезают на Земле в настоящее время. Многие из них в опасности. Индийские тигры и Африканские слоны среди них. Люди охотятся и убивают много тигров в Индии и много слонов в Африке. Почему?
Тигры и слоны часто бывают опасны. Тигры могут убить коров, овец, других домашних животных, а иногда и человека. Некоторые люди боятся тигров и убивают их, чтобы защитить домашних животных и свои жизни. Но некоторые люди охотились на тигров ради веселья и их красивой шкуры. Они легко могут продать шкуру и получить много денег, так как цены на них очень высокие.
Результат очень плачевный. На Земле осталось очень мало Индийских тигров. Многие из них старые и больные. Многие тигры не охотятся на людей в настоящее время, а прячутся от них в дремучих, тёмных лесах. Или точнее они прятались в них раньше, сейчас осталось мало лесов для тигров. Люди вырубили много деревьев. И вопрос вот какой: “У этих животных есть будущее?”
Тот же самый вопрос мы можем задать по поводу Африканских слонов. Это прекрасные животные. Они могут помогать людям. В прошлом веке в Африке было полно слонов. Но в настоящее время их немного в парках Африки.
Это грустная история про Индийских слонов и Африканских тигров. Но многие менее опасные дикие животные исчезают в настоящее время на Земле. Современная жизнь плохо влияет на них. Воздух загрязнён. Вода грязная. У них часто нет хорошей пищи и мест обитания. Их имена вы можете найти в Красной Книге. Названия некоторых рыб вы также можете там увидеть.
Обо всех них люди должны особенно заботиться.
Мы должны сохранить диких животных.
Мы должны найти правильный баланс между землёй, людьми и животными.
Мы должны заботиться о природе.
Some animals are in danger because people have hunted them for many years. And animals often don’t have forests to live in because people have cut down many trees. Very often animals don’t have fresh air and clean water.
People have hunted and killed many tigers in India because tigers are very dangerous animals and people killed them to save their domestic animals and their lives. And some people have often hunted tigers for fun and for their beautiful skin. They can easily sell the skin and get a lot of money as the prices are high.

1. The life of the people on the Earth depends on the sun, on animals and plants around us.
2. They are disappearing because people have hunted them for years.
3. Yes, elephants can be useful. They can be used as transport.
4. Not only Indian elephants and African tigers are in danger.
5. Other animals are in danger because they don’t have fresh air and clean water.
6. We can find the names of some animals, birds and fish in the Red Book because they are disappearing now.
7. People must take special care of animals and nature.

People on our planet depend on the sun, on animals and plants around them. But now animals are in danger. Indian tigers and African elephants are among them. People have hunted and killed a lot of tigers and now there are few of them. People hunted tigers for their beautiful skin. And prices for the skin are high. African elephants are in danger too. There are not many of them in African parks.
Some birds are also disappearing from our planet. Often they don’t have clean water and enough space to live. And the air is not very fresh. You can find names of some fish in the Red Book too.
People must take care of nature and animals. We must save them.

In this country animals and birds are also in danger. And we can’t see animals in the forests because the forests are very dirty. The rivers are not clean. And of course people hunt animals. Nobody in this country thinks about how to save animals.

I was walking in the street when I saw a dog. The animal was in danger because there were many cars. The cars were coming very fast. And suddenly one struck the dog. The animal was killed at once.
