Scooter is a Chinese crested dog (冠毛犬).His body is hairless, but he has a thin white hair on his head.His back legs face backwards (向后), and his tongue (舌头) often hangs out of his mouth.Scooter’s special looks won him the 2023 World’s Ugliest Dog Competition.
The World’s Ugliest Dog Competition started in America.The competition name may not sound very nice, but it isn’t about laughing at ugly dogs.Instead, the competition shows unusual dogs.It also asks people to adopt (领养) dogs that need a loving home.

Have you ever seen chipmunks (花栗鼠) They are small squirrels (松鼠), and they spend much of their time on the ground.People name this animal chipmunk because they make the special chip-chip sound.There are as many as 25 kinds of chipmunks, and most live in North America.A wild chipmunk can live for 2 to 5 years.
Chipmunks are very small, and they enjoy living alone.When they are two months old, they leave their mothers to live by themselves.They build their own homes and start collecting food there all by themselves.They do not like living or making friends with other chipmunks much.
Unlike other hibernating (冬眠的) animals, chipmunks do not live on body fats during winters.They collect and keep food during summers and eat it during winters.In winter, they don’t sleep all the way through the winter.They are light sleepers and wake up every few days to eat food.
Chipmunks may not be as popular as pet dogs or pet cats, but they can be good ones.They can feed on many things from vegetables and fruit to nuts (坚果) and bird eggs.They sleep at night, so you don’t have to look after them during night time.But you have to remember one thing—chipmunks have trust problems, so it takes time for them to become close to you.
