6. What can we do to save it

6. Write a passage about an animal in danger. Use your answers in Activity 5 and the following example to help you.
Pandas live in Southwest China. They are in danger and the situation is getting very difficult. First, pandas do not have many babies, and baby pandas often die. Second, pandas eat bamboo, but the bamboo forests are getting smaller. So the government is setting up nature parks with a lot of bamboo to help protect pandas.
Sample
The tiger is an animal in danger. First, there are very few in the wild now. Second, the forests where tigers live are disappearing. Third, people are killing tigers. So tigers need forests to live in, and people need to stop killing them.
