There are many kinds of animals in the zoo. Look! There are two lions. They are very big and smart. There is a tiger near them. He is not friendly but scary. The lions and the tiger are in cages.
People think they are dangerous. But I do not think it is good for animals to stay in cages. They should be free. The animals in cages can’ t be happy.
Do you like koalas? There is a two-year-old koala in the zoo. He always sleeps in the day and at night he gets up and eats leaves. I like dolphins best. There are two dolphins in the zoo. They like swimming and jumping in the water. They swim so fast and jump so high. They can play with a ball.
