TAPESCRIPT :
High in dense bamboo forests in the misty mountains
of southwestern China live one of the world's rarest
mammals: the panda. Pandas feed mainly on bamboo
shoots and leaves. Occasionally they eat other plants, fish
or small animals. Pandas eat fast and they eat a lot. They
spend about 12 hours a day doing it.
Pandas are in extreme gander today. There are only
about 600 of these black-and-white bears in the wild and a
hundred in captivity. One of the reasons is that the survival
rate of the cubs is very low: more than half of them die
shortly after birth. The Chinese government is considering
cloning the panda in their efforts to save this animals.

→ SAMPLE ESSAY:
Rhinos once roamed throughout Eurasia and Africa,
and were known to early Europeans who depicted them in
cave paintings. Within historical times, rhinos were still
widespread in the African savannas and the tropical forests
of Asia.
Today however, very few rhinos (about 17,000 in the
world) now survive outside national parks and reserves.
The males can grow up 1,8 m long and weigh up to
3,000kg while the Males are a bit smaller with the length
of 1,2 m and a weight of 1,000 – 1,500 kg. The life span of
rhinos can be up to forty years.
Rhinos are known to sleep both standing and lying on
the ground and are fond of wallowing in muddy pools and
sandy river-beds. Their main food is grass and plants.
WWF is one of the few organizations attempting to
tackle these threats from all angles: strengthening protected
areas in Africa and Asia, lobbying to halt the illegal timber

trade, and stamping out the illegal trade in horn.
