Book2 unit4 wildlife protectionPeriod 1: warming up & readingAimsTo talk about endangered speciesTo read about wildlife protectionProceduresI. Warming up by learning about animalsLook at the photos below and listen to me telling you about the animals, the endangered animals.The Giant Panda is a mammal now usually classified in thebear family, Ursidae, that is native to central China.The Giant Panda lives in mountainous regions, like Sichuanand Tibet. The Giant Panda is the symbol of the World WildlifeFund (WWF), a conservation organization. Toward the latter half ofthe 20th century, the panda also became somewhat of a nationalemblem for China, and is now used in Chinese gold coins.Giant Pandas are an endangered species, threatened by continued loss of habitat and by a very low birthrate, both in the wild and in captivity. About 1,600 are believed to survive in the wild.Milu deer is a Chinese deer. It has a long tail, wide hooves, and branched antlers. AnotherChinese name for it is “four unlikes,.” because the animals were seen ashaving the horns of a stag, the neck of a camel, the foot of a cow, and the tailof an ass.These animals were first made known to Western science in the 19thcentury, by Father Arm and David, a French missionary working in China.At the time, the only surviving herd was in a preserve belonging to theChinese emperor. The last herd of Milu deers that remained in China were eaten by Western and Japanese troops that were present at the time of the Boxer Rebellion.These deer are now found in zoos around the world, and a herd of Milu deer was reintroduced to Dafeng Reserve, China in the late 1980s. They are classified as “critically endangered.” in the wild, but do not appear to have suffered from a genetic bottleneck because of small population size.A tiger is a large cat famous for its beautiful fur of orangestriped with black.

Wildlife can refer to flora (plants) but more commonly refers to fauna (animals). Needless to say, wildlife is a very general term for life in various ecosystems. Deserts, rainforests, plains, and other areas—including the most built-up urban sites—all have distinct forms of wildlife.Humankind has historically tended to separate civilization from wildlife in a number of ways; besides the obvious difference in vocabulary, there are differing expectations in the legal, social, and moral sense. This has been reason for debate throughout recorded history. Religions have often declared certain animals to be sacred, and in modern times concern for the environment has provoked activists to protest the exploitation of wildlife for human benefit or entertainment.2.Reading to the recordingNow turn to page 26, listening and reading to the recording of the text.
