For the best week we've been working on a piece of writing called a information report. we had a few choices of endangered animals but i choose the snow leopard. it was a bit hard to add detail into the paragraphs but fun to learn more about them! Anyways, heres my writing!! telll me what i would add or take away, anyways read ahead!!
SAVE THE SNOW LEOPARDS
Introduction
You've heard of a Leopard but do you know about the endangered species known as the snow leopards? They are endangered because theres only 4000-6000 left in the world. Snow leopards are an apex predator which means they are at the top of their food chain just like us. Their scientific name is the Panthera Uncia.
Appearance
These animals have a beautiful furry coat with a somelike cheetah print on it. People call them the snow cheetahs for that resemblance. They have soft fur which becomes even thicker in winter to keep the kitty warm. They camouflage into their habitat because of their white fluffy fur which also has a tint of yellow and brown.
Diet
They love to munch on farm animals such as sheep, goats, horses and yak calves. They also eat blue sheep, deer, ibex and marmots. But that's pretty bad for them. They are hunted by farmers for eating their pets. But that's only one reason they are endangered….
Habitat
These kittens like to live in the high mountains of Asia where it's all snowy. They live in 12 different countries in Asia such as Afghanistan, Bhutan, China, India, Nepal, Russia and alot more so lots of choices! Just like the Antarctic, their snow is melting from climate change. That's another reason why they are endangered.
Conclusion
To summarise this, we'll have to try our best to persuade people to stop poaching these cute little creatures. Although their coats are gorgeous and soft, you don't need to wear them! I hope I've somewhat helped you learn or maybe even changed your mind! So please, do your small part! Maybe even look into these websites: WWF or maybe even Take Action? Anyways, thank you for your time.
