One possible version:
Dear Jim,
I am writing to tell you something about the Tibetan antelope.
The Tibetan antelope is mainly distributed on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. It is similar to the Mongolian gazelle in appearance, but much bigger. Male Tibetan antelopes have long horns while females are hornless. The Tibetan antelope’s belly is covered with soft and warm wool. The number of the Tibetan antelopes has reduced for the illegal poaching for their wool. At present, the Tibetan antelope is listed as an endangered species.
Yours,
