SQUIRRELS


SQUIRRELS

The squirrel is one of my favourite animals. They usually live in temperate forests, on the trees, but you can also see them in many parks in Europe and North America.
The squirrel is a small mammal. They have got four short legs, brown fur, small eyes and ears and a long furry tail.

Squirrels are fast, very active, quite common and very intelligent. A squirrel can climb very tall trees. They can recognise their home among thousands of trees. They can jump very well. They collect nuts and hide them in lots of different places. They can recognise these places in winter to have food. They can also fool other squirrels to protect their nuts.
They can stand on two legs and use their hands to open and eat nuts.


I like squirrels because they are small, nice and very sociable. They get near people in parks and they are not usually afraid of humans. Some people have them as pets, but I think this is horrible.

  2. THE CHEETAH

    The cheetah is my favourite animal. He's a mammal that belongs to the feline species. His natural habitat is normally the jungle and rainforest of Asia, South Africa and South America. Here he can hunt his preys easilly and at the same time he can hide from his enemies.

    The most typical features of this animal is his fur which is really beautiful. His orange with black spots. He has also got very sharp ears that permits him to sense any noise. He's the fastest animal in the world. He can run at a speed of 60km/h.
