А про кого животного

The Amur tiger is one of the smallest subspecies of tiger, the most northern tiger. Included in the Red Data Book.
The area of this tiger is concentrated in a protected area in the south -east of Russia, on the banks of the Amur and Ussuri rivers in the Khabarovsk and Primorsky regions.
Amur tiger on current data refers to the largest subspecies, wool thicker than tigers living in warmer areas, and its color is lighter. The basic coat color in winter - orange, white belly.
The Amur tiger - the lord of vast areas, the area of ​​which the female is 300-500 km ², and the male - 600-800 km ².
The basis of the diet are red deer, sika and red deer, roe deer, wild boar, elk, lynx.
The Amur tiger is listed in the Red Book of Russia. In April 2007, experts from the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) announced that the population of tigers has reached the maximum of one hundred years, and that Tiger is no longer on the verge of extinction

Endangered animals
From year to year the interest to rare endangered animals grows up.  Especially rare types of animals deserve great of attention and careful attitude. 

Wild animals make that part of the organic world which turns out to be the most vulnerable, and the loss of it is not only real but it may occur in the shortest time. Famous English  scientist Gerald Darrell said about the attitude of people to the wild-life: «Our world is as complicated and  vulnerable as a spider’s web. We may touch a single part of it and all the rest will shake as well. But we not simply touch the web but produce gaping holes in it; we conduct, if it is possible to say, biological battle against the environment». The fauna of our planet is the indivisible system, and the loss of any, the most insignificant at first glance, section leads to serious changes. That is why it is important to save every type of animals. Every kind is unique, interesting and necessary for people and nature.
In spite of understanding this fact, people contaminate and drain rivers and lakes, destroy  forests, senselessly kill wild animals. The famous specialists Harper and Allen counted up that for the last twenty centuries hunters and colonists have already destroyed 106 types of large beasts and 139 species of birds. Only in 19 century seventy types of animals became extinct, for the last fifty years-forty types have disappeared!
Today the most well-known species of endangered animals, which are under the threat of complete disappearance, compute a blue whale, a Floridian panther, an arctic bear, a mountain gorilla, a  cassowary, an Ussuriisk tiger and a giant panda. Animals disappear as a result of people’s influence on their life. People involuntarily take away their small brothers’ natural places of habitation, theirs fodder sites, cut down forests, cultivate deserts, contaminate seas and atmosphere. As a consequence animals are exterminated as fast as by means of a gun, poison, traps.
Blue whales, for example, die out  for innutrition. The destruction of the ozone layer leads to the reduction of the amount, of plankton in the World Ocean, and  it turns out to be the main food of whales.
A snow leopard or an ounce used to be called a precious brilliant in a pearl frame of mountains. Rich nomads decorated their clothes with the fur of a leopard- it was considered to be very honorable. As a snow leopard  lived in out-of-the-way places, people never hunted this animal earlier those days, but nowadays a great number of ounces are killed as well as herds of mountain goats, morals and roes whom snow leopards hunt.
Trees felling and vigorous activity of poachers become the reason of reduction of the population of mountain gorillas.
A cassowary-the second-large bird in the world living in Australia- dies out today. The reason of considerable decrease in its population is the development of swine-breeding. Pigs ruin nests of birds and destroy their eggs.
The number of Ussurisk tigers decreased tragically in Russia. In 1980s the population of this animal reached its peak. But at the beginning of 1990s the Iron Curtain fell. Borders swung open and Chinese smugglers, ready to buy up the whole taiga, rushed into Russia. Tigers didn’t give in without a fight – a great  amount of people found their death from teeth and claws of the lawful governor of a taiga. And only in 1994 the World fund of the wild nature came  to the Far East with the project of preservation of the Amur tiger. Now the number of the Amur tiger is stabilized at the level of 450  hundred.
Thus, the problem of preservation of wild animals has many moral, esthetic, ecological, genetic, economic and other aspects. Once sports used to need advertizing and encouragement, and hunting literature used to help people to love the  beauty of the nature. Those years passed away. Now it is a too wasteful way of love.
A little more time will pass and all humanity will consider so-called sports hunting to be a shameful remnant of wildness and a murder of an animal without need will be punished by the law as strictly as a murder of a person. Any murder, both of a person and an animal, causes a big moral loss, first of all to the one who kills, and to those people who surround him. If it  proceeds in such a way there will be no more animals to kill soon, and  engineers will have to make hares, deer and wood-grouses of nylon and other chemical substitutes, and then they will let them out into the woods, also nylon.
It is time to introduce proper order on the Earth, to break senseless destruction of wild animals and woods, pollution and  withering rivers and lakes! Nowadays protection of nature is not the academic theory but the urgent need.

киты – животные теплокровные, способные сохранять постоянство температуры тела независимо от окружающей среды. Внушительная жировая прослойка защищает животных от переохлаждения и поддерживает постоянную температуру тела около 35-40 градусов.

Киты дышат не жабрами, а легкими. У кита отсутствуют жабры, зато есть мощные легкие с отлично сформированной мускулатурой, благодаря чему киты на 90% осуществляют воздухообмен за один вдох/выдох (для сравнения: у человека воздухообмен происходит лишь на 15%). Поэтому киты, в зависимости от вида, способны пребывать в толще воды от 10 до 40 минут, а кашалоту глотка воздуха хватает на 1,5 часа.

There are over two thousand animal spices in the world, but only two or three dozens of them are domesticated. All the rest live in the wild nature, and are not domesticable. They are usually referred to wild animals. Wild animals are distinguished from the domestic ones by external appearance, behavior and feeding habits. But the key difference between them is their attitude to humans. Wild animals always see people as enemies rather than friends. Their fear for humans is genetic, and even if you manage to tame one of them, its joeys will not be born tamed.

To my mind, the most unusual wild animals live in Australia. It is, for example, the kangaroo – the most well-know marsupial mammal, which breeds the young in the pouch. It is also a koala bear – a sluggish wooly animal which is often called the symbol of Australia. Finally, Australia is home for the emu, the second largest flightless bird in the world.

The happiest day in my life was, when I was presented with a puppy. I named him Charlie. He was so ridiculous and amusing. When he tried to run for me, he waddled in a funny way. Now he has grown up and become so nice, in spite of the fact that he is an ordinary mongrel.
He has smooth brown wool, short tail and funny ears. I like to go for a walk with him. When we walk, I teach Charlie to do different commands: give a paw, count and dance. He does it with pleasure. And besides I want him to teach to carry my schoolbag!
He is very friendly. He never offends anybody. He eats even from one bawl with our kittens.
Recently I was ill and my mother said that Charlie was so unhappy! Sometimes he didn’t want to eat.
I love my true friend!
Перевод:
Самый счастливый день в моей жизни был, когда мне подарили щенка. Я назвала его Чарли. Он был такой смешной и забавный. Когда он пытался бежать за мной следом, то смешно переваливался с одного бока на другой. Сейчас он подрос и стал таким симпатичным, несмотря на то, что он обыкновенный дворняжка.
У него гладкая коричневая шерсть, короткий хвост и очень смешные уши. Я люблю гулять с ним. Когда мы гуляем, я учу Чарли выполнять разные команды: давать лапу, считать и танцевать. Он с удовольствием это делает. А ещё я хочу научить его носить мой портфель!
Он очень дружелюбный. Никогда никого не обижает. Даже ест из одной миски с нашими котятами.
А когда совсем недавно я болела, мама рассказывала мне, что Чарли был таким грустным и даже иногда отказывался есть.
Я очень люблю своего верного друга!

In the animal world there are a lot of interesting animals. Here, for example, an animal which is called the aye-aye.
Let’s start with the fact that unusual in the animal name itself - "ay-ay." Ai-ai - mammal, living in dense forests and bamboo jungles of Madagascar. The animal is usually silent. But, when frightened, screaming: "Rron-TKIT!". And earlier believed that the beast makes sounds like "ah-ah".
Teeth ah-ah, like proteins. Canines are missing, and the top and bottom incisors only two, and the aye-aye nests do, like squirrel. In general, the animal belongs to the order of primates, the family - rukonozhkovye. The second name of this animal - rukonozhka

Early in this country, there were tens of thousands tigers. At night people were afraid to move away from the lights far away, so as not to become a tasty morsel for the tiger. Is the fault of the person that a greater number of tigers turned into cannibals. Often the bullet did not immediately kill the animal, but only wounded him. Wounded and weakened beast could hunt only on the weak prey. The man himself was the prey. Раньше в этой стране насчитывалось десятки тысяч тигров. В ночное время люди боялись отходить от огней далеко, чтоб не стать лакомым кусочком для тигра. Есть вина человека в том, что большее количество тигров превратилось в людоедов. Часто пуля сразу не убивала зверя, а только ранила его. Израненный и ослабленный зверь мог охотиться только на слабую добычу. Человек сам оказался этой добычей. ПЕРЕВОД

My favorite domestic animal is a puppy. Its name is Chapa. It was afternoon and the streets were empty as I was going back home after school two month ago.  Suddenly I heard some noise under the nearest tree. I came up to the tree and saw a small puppy! He was clean and so pretty that I couldn’t help smiling. Of couгse, I took this little miracle with me. Now my puppy is very fat and kind. Its head isn’t big. Its neck is short. Its paws are small. Its  eyes are black and clever. Its ears are small. My puppy likes to eat especially milk and chicken. We play every evening.  I like my puppy very much. I think dogs are very careful and clever.     

На русском: 
Однажды, в дремучем лесу родилось существо с большими глазками. Оно не было похоже ни на одно существо на земле. На коричневой мордашке были видны светлые пятнышки, к которым нужно было присмотреться, чтобы увидеть их. Короткий хвостик и лапки, как у котенка. Дернув большими черными ушками, неопознанный зверек взглянул на небо большими глазками и тут же зажмурился от яркого палящего солнца.  
Тихий и глухой стук раздавался по всему лесу, будто шагал старый мудрый лось. Зверек шагал уверенно по лесной тропинке, будто всю жизнь ходил тут. Казалось, следя за ним прошла целая вечность, но вот. Как в конце туннеля заискрился яркий огонек.  
Маленький, еле поблескивающий, огонек.  
Зверек подошел к нему и обнюхав своим черненьким носиком, слегка боднул огонек. Лишь легкое покачивание огонька, дало знать, что тот просто отдыхает.  
Милая улыбка появилась на мордашке зверька. Сделав плавное движение носиком, огонек тут же оказался на мохнатой спинке своего нового знакомого. В скором времени, эта парочка вышла из леса и с веселым видом зашагала дальше.

И прости, если очень много.  
Меня почему-то затянуло.

The koala is a familiar Australian symbol.
Koalas have soft, wool-like grey fur. They have a large, round head with large, round, furry ears, a large nose and long strong limbs with sharp claws. The koala look like little bear,  but the koala  ‘bear’ is not a bear at all. Koala is a marsupial mammal.
Eucalyptus trees are the primary habitat of Koalas and they are rarely observed anywhere else.
Koalas are very fussy. Koalas eat only leaves and bark from eucalyptus trees.
Koalas get a lot of moisture from eucalyptus leaves, so they don’t have to drink a lot of water, because  in Aboriginal language, the word Koala is thought to mean "does not drink".
    Koalas vary in size and color depending on where they live in Australia.
    A baby Koala is called a joey.  Joeys are only around 2 cm long when born and like most other marsupials, Koala mothers keep their joeys in their pouch for around 6 months.
   Koalas can live up to 10 years in the wild. Because of cutting down of  eucalyptus forest in the 20th century population of koalas declined to such an extent that they were included in the endangered animals list.
Коала  символ  Австралии.
Коалы имеют мягкую шерсть, серый мех.  У них большая, круглая  голова с большими, круглыми, пушистыми ушами, большой нос и длинные сильные конечности с острыми когтями. Коала выглядит как медведь, но коала  не медведь вовсе. Коала сумчатые млекопитающие.
Эвкалиптовые деревья  являются основным местом обитания коал, и они редко встречаются  в другом месте.
Коалы очень привередливы. Коалы едят только листья и кору с деревьев эвкалипта.
Коалы получают  много влаги из листьев эвкалипта, так что они не должны пить много воды, потому что в языке аборигенов, слово коала означает  "не пьет".
    Коалы различаются по размеру и цвету в зависимости от того, где они живут в Австралии.
    Ребенок Коала называется детеныш.  Детеныши  длинной  всего около 2 см, когда рождается и как и большинство других сумчатых, Коала матери держат их детенышей  в их сумке около 6 месяцев.
   Коалы могут жить до 10 лет в дикой природе. Из-за вырубки эвкалиптовых лесов в популяции 20-го века коал сократилось до такой степени, что они были включены в список находящихся под угрозой исчезновения животных.
