"Big Cats"

My name is Katya Gordienko.

I am from school 629, form 5D(5Г).

I like big cats, and I want to tell about them.

Big cats live around the world, but people don’t see them very often.

They have sharp claws and teeth.

They can be dangerous to people but people are even more dangerous to them.

Many people hunt big cats for their bones, fur and even for fun.

The lion is the loudest of all big cats.

 Lions live in families called prides.

The female lions do most of hunting.

They usually hunt late in the evening or early in the morning.

They kill antelopes, gazelles, buffalos and zebras.

You can find lions in Africa and Asia.

The biggest of the big cats is the tiger.

They are known around the world for their power.

Most tigers come from India and they usually live alone.

They are good climbers and swimmers.

They can eat up to 30 kilograms of meat.

Now there are only 2 thousand and 5 hundred tigers.

Many of them live in conservation parks.
