PANDA BEAR ANAIS COLL

The name Panda Bear of two species in the order of Carnivores: the panda minor, also called red panda, and the giant panda. They originate in China, being discovered in 1869.
The timid giant panda is often evoked as the icon of the animals in extinction. Since then, the panda became the attraction of zoos in the world (the first came to the West in 1937), which are approximately 100 copies of this bear, while another 1,000 bears pandas survive in their natural state within reserves created in the thick bamboo forests of southwestern China.
Two of the main reasons for the panda is endangered is the disappearance of their natural habitat with the felling of thousands of hectares of bamboo forests, their natural food, and the extreme difficulty of this kind to breed in captivity, basically shyness, as experts say.

Part of the reduction is due to too panda poachers.
A panda adults need an average of 14 pounds of bamboo a day, feeding process in which invests 12 hours.

THE DOLPHINS BY LAURA

-The dolphins live: Warm seas
-Dolphins Habits: Lives in groups
-Nourishment of the dolphins: Fishes
-Characteristics of the dolphins: Body in the shape of spindle. Small head. Snout lengthened in the shape of beak of duck. Very voracious and intelligents and easy to domesticate.

The main danger for the dolphins are sharks and men.
The populations of dolphins can be taken to the extinction by the fishing destructive practices and also because they are used in experiments. Others use them as way of entertainment in the water parks, but if the public find out about the process for domesticating these defenseless animals they would not spend their time seeing them.

IMPERIAL EAGLE BY ALBERT ABELLA

The iberic imperial eagle its a bird of prey daytime, large 72-83cm, very circumspect view, strong muscles and very fast flight. Its color is dark brown. It weighs 2400-3200g males and females 2900-4000g. Their size is 200cm males and females dimension: 220cm. In Spain there are 150 couples of iberic imperial eagle.

This specie is located almost exclusively in the Iberian peninsula, where dwells all year, defending his territory with great zeal. Their habitats are suitable areas of the forest esclerófilo typically Mediterranean, where they mingle scrub, grasslands and streams. The eagles built nests in the crown of cork and pine, in places difficult to access.They feed mainly on rabbits and hares.

Youngest copies can be captured by other birds of prey and foxes. The alarming decline in population is due, however, only to human beings illegally causes, like electrocution, conversion of forest areas in irrigation areas; excessive employment of pesticides, and so on. To prevent the extinction of imperial eagle, breeding centers in captivity are being created. In addiation to the habitats where imperial eagles live, there are many protected parks.

To sum up, this is what we must do to increase the population of imperial eagles.

THE WILD GOAT BY MARIO PASCUAL MONFORTE

The wild goat

The mountain goat has a very compact and robust body, which emphasizes its antlers, no branch, very large and beautiful in a mate. His hair, grey brown color on the back and white on the belly, varies along the year. The legs and the sides are stained black in the male, while the female and the young, this happens only in the legs. They eat any plant material, such as grasses, lichens, bark, buds and fruit. Often lick salt supply cattle herders. It is distributed only by the Iberian peninsula, mostly occupying areas of forest and scrub mountain.

Where the wild coat lives, it has been transformated in a natural park for where are not so many wolfs and other predators, and it has been forbbiden hunting them.


To sum up, now wild coats are going to be out of risk.

SORRY FOR THESE FOUR WORKS. I DIDN'T MANAGE AT ALL TO PUBLISH THEM!!

TURTLES BY

TURTLES

These reptiles are characterized by having a hard shell, which protects them.
They live in tropical or temperate, most species are adapted to freshwater habitats, terrestrial or marine life.
The turtles have widely varying sizes, from small turtles of about 12-16 cm in length, until gigantic.
Although there are few species of turtles that can be treated strictly herbivore or carnivorous, some species that live inland prefer to feed on vegetation, while aquatic species are basically carnivorous. All turtles put eggs, which they bury in holes. All turtles, including marine deposit eggs on land. Some species live for more than 100 years.
In SWEET water:
His favorite food is grilled natural dried, but as lettuce, hard bread, slices of ham and cooked.




Marine:
The turtle is brown and with a little yellow. They feed on jellyfish, seaweed and shellfish.

Earth:
These turtles are vegetarian, which is good for tomatoes, bananas, lettuce, fruit, but also eat meat crushed.

THE REASONS FOR THEM TO BE ENDANGERED?; HOW TO PROTECT THEM?
CORRECTED!!

THE WOLF BY NIZAR ANAKAR

The wolf: an endangered animal

The wolf is one of the most endangered animals in the world. From ancient times the wolf has been chased by the man since he has been considered to be the principal enemy of the man. This owes to itself especially to that this animal is in a level similar to that of the man in the ecological pyramid. Both the man and the wolf were competing in the antiquity for the food. The paradox is that the dog "The best friend of men” arose because our forbears domesticated to a few wolves between other species. This fierce animal once domesticated turned into a faithful servant of the human being, helping in the hunt and in the maintenance of his flocks. On the other side the wolves that were continuing in wild condition were attacking to his flocks and were considered for it as one of the major enemies of the man.

CORRECTED. AND YOU HAVE TO ADD THE STRATEGIES TO PROTECT HIM!!! SO THE CONCLUSION.





Humans have always being afraid of wolves. And is because of that why wolves have being so persecuted that they have almost being taken to the extermination. But that does not mean that it should be justify itself. Nowadays the wolf has disappeared of many zones of our peninsula and only it is possible to see him in some natural redoubts as Muniellos's Natural Reservation in Asturias. And if this animal has managed to resist in this reservation is thanks to the absence of domestic cattle.

With this I am not blaming the owners of cattle, or to those who work thanks to this type of domestic cattle. These people have to defend their interests, but they do not have to kill the wolves. Probably if the government was offering more economic compensations to the owners of cattle who have been victims of any assault on the part of the wolves, the first ones would not be chasing these splendid animals and the wolf would have more opportunities of surviving with a threat less of the human being. Because of it we must arouse ourselves of the serious danger that traverses this animal and try to put means to avoid his extinction.

THE EAGLE BY TONI GARCIA

ALUMNE:TONI GARCÍA LOSA CURS:4ªAESO
CROWNED EAGLE
It is a large eagle. The female measures 80 to 84 cm. long and the male 75 to 79 cm. The beak is black. The wax and feet are yellow. The head is grey ash with a prominent crest. The dorsal part is greyish brown. The ventral part is Ocherous dark grey. The wings are brown grey with black tip. The tail is dark grey at the base, with a wide white stripe in the middle, a band a thin black and white tip. The juniors are neck and the sides of the neck, ocráceos. Dorsally are vascular. It feeds on mammals and rodents. He is lonely or partner. It builds the nest with sticks, forming a solid platform. The interior can place leaves. The position is an egg white and speckled with grey pints and some yellowed (almost ochre) distributed in the form spaced across the surface. He frequents wooded grasslands, savannas, mountains. In the riversThey live in Salta, Jujuy, Tucuman, Formosa, Chaco, Misiones, , Santa Fe, Santiago del Estero, Cordoba, San Luis and La Pampa.
Builds nest in the trees. The nest is a single egg.
The female, which is more slender and longer than the male, lays two eggs white with brown spots. The eggs are incubated for four or five weeks; The hatchings are fed in the nest for a very long time
At Crowned Eagle is known in English by "Crowned Eagle”
These eagles emit a cry loud and strident throwing frequently. So they called the voice of Africa. They are territorial, though not defending their territory as other birds of prey. They live in pairs and do not migrate, if they are not bound by major natural causes. The neck and head with a white or grey plumage very clear.
The crowned eagle is a great rapacious and most terrible enemy of the Apes tree crop. These birds are large and capable of killing dams of lot size.
It kills for being a "white" very easy for the "sport hunters."
Where is the conclusion? You have to explain why is the animal endangered and what are humans doing to prevent this.
So you have to write the conclusion!!!

THE IBERIAN LINX BY ALBA DOMINGUEZ

Alba Domínguez -


THE IBERIAN LYNX

The Iberian lynx is a feline with long legs and short tail, and their ears are in end form.They weigh between twelve and twenty kg. The Iberian lynx lives in the Mediterranean in the zones of Spain and Portugal.

It is a carnivorous animal and its habitual food is the rabbit.

They live single and they are not always in he same place, they are usually changing the place where they live. The lynx has been endangered for many years, and at the moment they are left very few units because the humans have constructed in their zones of living.

The Iberian lynx was declared protected specie in 1966 and is the only one of feline aligned in category 1 of the red list of the IUCN.

CORRECTED!!

BUT, CAN WE DO ANYTHING TO PROTECT THE ANIMAL?

THE LINX BY GEMMA ESTRADA

THE LYNX

The linx is an animal in danger of disparition.

The Iberian lynx is small, between 80 and 110 centimeters and weighing less than 13 kilograms or so. Their spots are pronounced and small.

It inhabits areas of central and southwest of the Iberian Peninsula.

The lynx's diet is based mainly on rabbits and hares, although it can eat larger prey as deer.The birds, such as ducks and partridges, rodents and reptiles are also part of their diet, although to a lesser extent.

The decline in the population of Linx is due to decline in European rabbits. In addition, rabbit traps are also cause of death for the lynx.

But the root cause of the lynx disappearing, unfortunately, is the action, whether direct or indirect, of man. The construction of roads, hunting lynx that took place some years ago and other factors. In addition, experts say that if there isn't an end to these conditions, there is a 34% probability that the Iberian lynx disappear from our fauna by the year 2050. Therefore we must all raise awareness and try that this percentage decreases to zero and that the lynx population increases.

GOOD, BUT HOW? CORRECTED.

THE WHITE LION BY MIREIA GARCIA

The White Lion

The withe lion, is originally from South Africa, on the River Timbavati,

where local people attach to this kind of magic power.

He weights about 200 kilograms It is in grave danger of extinction,

there are only 27 couples in captivity.

White lions are not albino lions, but their color is due to a recessive gene as in the case of withe tigers.

The color of their hair is taken as the union of all colors of the rainbow

and this Animal represents the union of races, the spirit of Africa.

VERY BEAUTIFUL, BUT YOU HAVE TO EXPLAIN WHY IS IT ENDANGERED AND WHAT CAN WE DO TO HELP IT.

THE POLAR BEAR BY ISMAEL BECERRA

The Polar Bear is an endagenered animal.

This animal is a mammal. This bear is bigger and longer than the other bears, for they acuatics habits. They have five claws to climb in the ice and capture his preys.



The polar bears are very robust, a male can weigh even 800 kg, but the females is of 250 kg, and that of the males of 350 kg.



The female is in the habit of giving birth to an alone baby, sometimes two.



Their principals food sources are seals.



The reason for them to be endangenered is climatic change. To save them, we have to stop contaminating.










CORRECTED!!

TORTOISES BY VICTORIA BOBIS

Victoria Bobis

THE TORTOISE OF EARTH & THE TURTLE OF WATER

The tortoises are big animals and they have a long life. The tortoises are one of the most endangered animals in the world. There are two kind of tortoises: the tortoise of earth and the turtle of water.

The tortoises have four paw, one small tail, they haven't any bones but they have a caparison.

The tortoise of earth is very slow and it eats vegetables. They are endangered, because they need food, and they haven't food because the plants are very polluted.

The turtle of water swimming in the sea are endangerd because the people kill them, and the sea is very polluted because the people throw garbage in it.

When they are in danger, they hide in their caparison. The caparison is very strong and resistent. Thanks of this, the predators can't eat it.

The tortoise is a very nice animal and we have to help them, because they can't survive long!

THE WALE BY ELENA ARPA

THE WHALE

Elena Arpa

THE WORK IS CORRECTED YET


The whales are marine mammals. They're one of the world's largest animals. In fact, the whale frank austral measure between twelve and sixteen meters, it's very big, and weigthing fifty tons.

Why are the whales endangered? The whales live in the sea... and the problem is that people make water contaminate. The whales eat small fish. If the sea is dirty, fish are dying and they can't reach new food sources and they often starve to death.

How can people help the whales survive? Cethus integrates Honorary Commission "Natural Monument Fraca sourthern Whale" that contributes to the conservation of this species.


To sum up, the whales, with hopefully help, will find a place without pollution which it needs to survive and it will no longer be an endangered animal.
