My favourite animal is the chameleon. I like them because they can change colour. Lots of people think that chameleons change colour to match where they are. But that's not true! Chameleons change colour when they're scared or angry, or when they're too cold or too hot. Chameleons have got a very long, sticky tongue that they use to catch insects. I think they're amazing animals!

I really love elephants. I love their big ears and long trunks. Elephants can pick up food with their trunk and put it in their mouth, or collect water in their trunk and spray it out. I like watching elephants in videos and I especially love baby elephants. They're so cute.

Dolphins are my favourite animals. I like them because they're so intelligent and friendly. Some dolphins live in zoos and they have to do tricks, like jumping or playing with balls. That makes me really sad. I think it's cruel. We should let dolphins live in the sea, where they can swim, jump and be happy.

What's your favourite animal? Why do you like it? What's special about it? Tell us about your favourite animal.
My favourite animals are Orcas as they are very smart, sensible and gentle. They are the apex predators of the ocean. Orcas are mammals, they have blow holes through which they breathe. They can dive deep, sometimes up-to 200m in the ocean. It is quite disheartening that these incredible creatures are endangered species.
I love tigers because they have got black stripes like zebra and I especially
love baby tigers because they are kind and cute they also walk with people and kids.
I have saw some tigers in wild life , even though when you feed them they are so kind
and that's I love tigers.
My favorite animal is lion because it is my horoscope, and it is orange. My favorite color is orange because I like Galatasaray and Galatasaray is orange. Also, my star is Sun and Sun is orange.
Lions are the king of the nature! They are very strong and they have beautiful fur. Also, they are predators.
Lions can run very fast.
