Wolves September 11, 2007

Wolves live all over the world. They travel in packs and mainly hunt deer, elk, caribou, and small rabbits and hares. In the United States wolves live in forests hunting deer. Sometimes wolves will wander onto people’s property. Many people don’t like this so they shoot the wolf. Becuase of this deer population is going up. More deer are coming to places where they should not be, like on a side of a road. We need wolves to help keep deer population down.  One way you could help wolves is donating money to help bulid a park where wolves can live, hunt, and be in their own natural habitat.

Tigers September 11, 2007

The Hunter or the Huntee?

 

Tigers live in India and parts of China. They hunt animals like deer, wild pigs, and water buffalo. They rarely hunt humans because the tigers don’t want to be hunted. Some people do hunt tigers. They are called poachers. They hunt tigers for their fur. Then they sell the fur for money. Now there aren’t very many tigers left in the world.

On the Verge of Extinction

 

Tigers are endangered. Many people think there should be some more tiger reserves, a place where animals can live in peace, around China and India. People could also breed tigers so the population of tigers would go up. Or the government in India and China could make a bigger punishment for poachers, like going to jail for years or paying a large fine. You can help tigers by telling your friends and family about this.
