Dear Sir/Madam,
Do you know the beautiful Siberian tigers? Have you seen them in the zoo? I think the Siberian tiger is one of the most popular animals that people like to see in the zoo. The reason is that they are strong and beautiful. But nowadays there are only 400 or so Siberian tigers in the world, and the number of them is decreasing. Why?Because many forests are cut down and Siberian tigers have no places to live in. In order to protect them, we should build more nature reserves. Besides, we must make laws to stop people from hunting them.
Let’s try our best to save the strong and beautiful tigers.
Yours,
Lin Li
