Animals

　　The largest animal ever to live on the earth is the blue whale(蓝鲸). It weighs about 80 tons－more than 24 elephants. It is more than 30 metres long. A newborn baby whale weighs as much as a big elephant.

　　Cats can survive(存活) falls from a very high place because they can turn themselves up the right way so as to keep their bodies safe. One cat fell 32 floors on to the street, but was just hurt a little.

　　A bear can run as fast as a horse.

　　A newborn panda is smaller than a mouse(老鼠), and weighs about 100 grams(克).

　　Elephants are the most careful animal in their love. A male(雄性的) elephant may show his lady love for up to three years until the lady takes his love. They often show their love by touching each other's body.

　　Usually, wolves(狼) do not attack(袭击) people. For years a Canadian newspaper says that they would give anyone quite a lot of money if he could show that a wolf had attacked a person. But nobody could do that. Wolves usually do not go together though they may do this in winter.
