Do you know why some animals are becoming endangered?

The animals are endangered if the number of animals alive is very low. The animals are endangered because the Humans cut down trees, build homes, build roads an fill in swamps and marshes to build homes. The pollution kills animals. Hunting animals is a very bad habit for the animals.

Describe your favourite animal.

My favourite animal is the hippopotamus because it is very big. The hippopotamus is fat, is not furry, has a big mouth, and is well fed for their species since over 25kg at birth and can exceed 450kg. The hippopotamus is lilac-purple and large bodied. It’s a semi-aquatic animal, and lives in Africa. The hippopotamus is a solitary animal, the hippopotamus seems quiet and gentle, but if you mind can attack and kill.
