☆Book Review 06: Animal Groups☆

I read this book "Animal groups". I learned about animal in speaking class when I was a freshman. I introduce about some animals.

The dog is a mammal in the order Carnivora. Dogs, like humans, are highly social animals and this similarity in their overall behavioral pattern accounts for their trainability, playfulness, and ability to fit into human households and social situation. In many countries, the most common and perhaps most important role of dog is as companions.

Elephants are mammals, and the largest land animals alive today. At birth it is common for an elephant calf to weigh 120 kg.

Pig is a fat animal with short legs and a curly tail which is kept on farms for its meat. A male pig is called "boar" and a female pig is called "sow" and a baby pig is called "piglet". Grunt is a short low noise that pigs make and squeal is a high noise that pigs make when they are excited or fightened. Pig farm is a farm where pigs are kept for their meat. Pigsty is a small farm building where pigs are kept.

The giraffe is an African even-toed unqulate mammal, the tallest of all landliving animal species. Males can be 4.8 to 5.5 metres tall and weigh up to 900 kilograms. Females are generally slightly shorter and weigh less. As for the giraffe, sight develops in particular, and 7 or 8 km communicate with a remote far-off crowd for sight, too and help it though they discover enemies such as lions.

Sheep is an animal that is kept on farms and that is used eor its wool and meat. An adult male sheep is called "ram" and an adult female sheep is called "ewe" and a young sheep is called "lamb". A group of sheep is called "flock" and a person who looks after sheep is called "shepherd"and a dog that is trained to control sheep on a farm is called "sheepdog".

Cat is a small furry animal with four legs and a tail which is often kept as a pet. A young cat is called "kitten" and a male cat is called "tom" or "tom-cat". Puss is a word used when you are speaking to or calling a cat. Stray cat is a cat that has left its home and is lost.

There are many kinds of animal but I write about some animals. I want to write on blog if I have a chance to write about other animals.
