Describe your favourite animal. Don't forget to write where it lives, what it looks like, what it eats, or how long it lives.


My favourite animal is a tiger. It is a member of the cat family. It can live for twenty years. It lives in Asia. The tiger eats meat. It hunts animals like a deer, buffalo and wild pig. It can run very fast. It can swim very well. Tigers can be four metres long and one meter tall. It has beautiful orange fur with brown or black stripes. It has got a long tail. I like this animal very much, because it is fast and beautiful.
