[00:48.86]C.Do you know why some animals are in danger of dying out? Read and find out.
[00:59.83]Many animals in the world are in danger of dying out.
[01:06.48]This is because people are destroying their homes.
[01:11.55]When this happens, the animals cannot find enough food.
[01:16.80]For example, people use bamboo from bamboo forests for building. [01:24.43]Pandas eat bamboo. Therefore they no longer have enough to eat. [01:32.80]In Hong Kong we are short of land. Therefore people take land from
the sea.
[01:41.11]This means that the pink dolphins around Hong Kong have less space to live in.
[01:48.69]People also cause a lot of pollution. Wild animals cannot live in polluted places.
[01:59.01]People hunt animals like deer, tigers and elephants for their body parts.
[02:07.99]Although there are laws against hunting, some people still hunt these animals.
[02:15.82]Some people like to buy young animals like baby orang-utans as pets. [02:24.18]Therefore baby orang-utans are mall and cute,
[02:29.32]when they grow up they become too large to keep in a house. [02:34.97]But by them it is too late to teach the orang-utans how to live in the jungle.
[02:43.53]Do you enjoy seeing different kinds of animals?
[02:48.69]We need to protect wild animals and their homes so that our children can still see many different kinds of animals in the future.
