The story of the dodo
Once upon a time I lived on the island of Mauritius. I was called “dodo”. There were many of us and we were friends with all the other animals on the island.
One day a new animal came to my island. His name was Man, and at first we seemed to be good friends. We went everywhere together and I shared my food with him.
Listening text
However, I began to wonder why several of my dodo friends had disappeared. Then the number of our species began to decrease quickly. I was so worried that I asked the other animals and they all told me, “Your friends are being killed and eaten by Man while you are hunting for food.” Had Man eaten them I couldn’t believe it! When I asked Man directly, he seemed surprised. “I haven’t seen the other dodos either.” he said. “Maybe someone else killed them.”
I believed him but when more dodos disappeared I set a trap. I went off as if I was going to hunt but instead I hid in the forest and waited. Sure enough Man came along. He ran after the last of my dodo friends and killed her. I felt so angry that I rushed out of my hiding place and straight at Man’s spear.
He killed me too. After that there were no more dodos in the world. So my motto is: be careful who you trust.
What should we do to protect the wildlife
I suggest we should ….
Protect the environment.
Help animals return to nature.
Never kill endangered animals.
Never buy endangered animals’ products.
Get people educated.
Pass laws to punish those illegal hunters
Set up more nature reserves and natural protection zones.
Protecting animals needs everyone’s effort. Human and animals should stay in peace with each other.
