Becoming An Animal

Becoming an animal, I would be an Arctic wolf. I love that because Arctic wolf live in cold places. I hate being hot and I love cool. Arctic wolves are carnivorous hunters. By nature, they help to control the populations of other animals like the musk, ox, caribou and Arctic hares in their region. Arctic wolves are mainly hunted for sport, for their skins, to protect livestock and some rare cases, to protect humans. Arctic wolves have been actively hunted since 8,000 to 10,000 years ago when they first began to pose a threat to livestock vital for the survival of Neolithic human communities. Arctic wolf is endangered because people are creating more greenhouse gases and making the temperature rise.

It’s so sad to see them becoming endangered animals! Hope the humans will be more kind to them.
