1.What Is Thunder and Lightning?
Lightning
is a sudden, violent flash of electricity between a cloud and the ground, or
from cloud to cloud. A lightning fl ash, or bolt, can be several miles long. It
is so hot, with an average temperature of 34,000° Centigrade, that the air
around it suddenly expands with a loud blast. This is the thunder we hear.Lightning occurs in hot, wet storms. Moist air is driven up to a great height. It forms a type of cloud called cumulonimbus. When the cloud rises high enough, the moisture freezes and ice crystals and snowfl akes are formed. These begin to fall, turning to rain on the way down. This rain meets more moist air rising, and it is the friction between them which produces static electricity. When a cloud is fully charged with this electricity, it discharges it as a lightning flash.
2.Kangaroo
A kangaroo is an animal found only in Australia, although it has a smaller relative, called a wallaby, which lives on the Australian island of Tasmania and also in New Guinea.
Kangaroos eat grass and plants. They have short front legs, but very long, and very strong back legs and a tail. These are used for sitting up and for jumping. Kangaroos have been known to make forward jumps of over eight metres, and leap across fences more than three metres high. They can also run at speeds of over 45 kilometres per hour.
The largest kangaroos are the Great Grey Kangaroo and the Red Kangaroo. Adult grow to a length of 1.60 metres and weigh over 90 kilos.
Kangaroos are marsupials. This means that the female kangaroo has an external pouch on the front of her body. A baby kangaroo is very tiny when it is born, and it crawls at once into this pouch where it spends its first five months of life
3.Platypus
Many people
call platypus duckbill because this animal has a bill like duckbill. Platypus
is a native Tasmania and southern and eastern Australia.
Platypus has a flat tail and webbed feet. Its body length is 30 to 45cm and covered with a thick, and woolly layer of fur. Its bill is detecting prey and stirring up mud. Platypus' eyes and head are small. It has no ears but has ability to sense sound and light.
Platypus lives in streams, rivers, and lakes. Female platypus usually dig burrows in the streams or river banks. The burrows are blocked with soil to protect it from intruders and flooding. In the other hand, male platypus does not need any burrow to stay.

4.The Camel
The camel is a
large, strong desert animal. Camels can travel great distances across hot, dry
deserts with little food or water. They walk easily on soft sand and carry
people and heavy hump. The hump is a large lump of fat providing energy if food
is hard to find.
There are two
chief kinds of camels: (1) the Arabian camel also loads to places that have no
roads. Camels also serve the people of the desert in many other ways. The camel
carries its own built-in food supply on its back in the form of a called
dromedary, which has one hump, and (2) Bactrian camel, which has two humps.
5.Tigers
Every body know tigers especially in thier wildness of hunting instincts and skill for survival and their extinction. The habitats of tigers are in Asia, Siberia and India. And the habitats of the tigers in each place is decrease every year, like we found in India where there are less than 3500 tigers in wild around of which 1411 are in India with its habitat falling by over 50% in last 30 years. Globally tigers occupy less than 7% of their historical geographical landscape.
Tigers are one of the biggest among the 37 species of cats in the world today. Tigers have very sharp teeth and very powerful claws to catch thier food such as deers, zebras, even buffaloes and other animals to be able to survie. Althoug tigers placed in the highest rank of predators but they also has a predator except a human. The predator of the tigers is a lion. Lions do not eat the tigers but just kill them to erase rivaly in catching their target. Tigers have big mouths and also have big gums. Tigers have piericing yellow eyes that glown in the dark that are used to hunting their food in the night.

Have you known
panda? How are pandas look like? Well,pandas are mammal. It means that pandas
bear live babies. They feed the babies on milk.
Panda is like

Panda’s fur is seen dominantly in white or snowy. While the legs, ears, eyes,
and also the muzzle are covered with black fur.
Formerly, panda
lived in South and East China. It was also found in part of Myanmar and
Vietnam. Today, panda is seen a lot in forest area in Sinchuan, Gangsu, and
Shaanxi of China
Panda looks
cute however it is actually a wild animal. It is like a bear. Because it has
strength, panda potentially becomes a frightful animal.
7.Marine Life
There are millions of plants and animals living in the sea. Most of the
plants and animals living in the oceans are extremely small and float near the
surface of the water. They are food for huge numbers of small animals that also
live near the surface. Together, they are all known as plankton.
Many fish feed on this plankton, including one of the largest, the whale shark. Despite their great size, certain whales live entirely on plankton. The blue whale is the largest animal ever to live. It grows to a length Of over 100 feet. The humpback whale is a smaller kind and has long flippers. It can jump right out the water. The Californian grey whale makes long migrations every year – it spends the summer feeding in the Artic but swims south to the warmer waters off the coast of Mexico in the winter. The females give birth in the shallow, warm water there.
Many of the fish in the sea may be eaten by other meat-eaters. Sharks, for example, are some of the fastest hunters, although not all of them eat other fish.
Deep down in the oceans live many strange fish. It is so dark down there that many of these fish have “light” on them, which are used for attracting smaller fish for the larger ones to eat.
Jellyfish are peculiar-looking creatures ranging in size from a fraction of an inch to 6 feet across. They don’t really swim but drift in the currents of the open oceans. Although they contain a powerful sting, they are often eaten by turtles. Turtles are reptiles that spend most of their eggs on sandy beaches.
