A shark at Calahonda beach (Newspaper: El Ideal)!!
Now that humans have abandoned the streets of our cities, towns and villages, wildlife is taking over. Isn't it bizarre to see wild goats strolling around the city centre? People had never seen the water of the canals in Venice so clean and clear in their whole lives!!
Just amazing!!!! Wild horses taking over skiing tracks in Sierra Nevada!!! Link to the piece of news (IDEAL: El espectacular vídeo de unos caballos salvajes tomando las pistas de Sierra Nevada)

ResponderEliminarthis summer if we can go to the beach we have to be more careful than ever since there are dangerous species near the shore, these animals have got there since the beach is now calmer than ever and they have taken advantage of coming

Since we are confined at home, nature makes an appearance, the air we are breathing is cleaning, but the most striking thing is the animals that come from the mountains to the cities.
ResponderEliminarIn my house one day a mountain goat passed me, it was incredible when I saw that animal, this animal was here on my streets because people fed it or took food from the garbage, and that's why it was around. You also see a lot for my people, wild boars, those animals that are huge and you have to be very careful, since they are animals that are very defenders of their young.
I did not expect to see on our beaches is a shark, to me when I was told that there was a shark on the beach and I said I'm not going over to the beach and reading the news and know that it was harmless and I quite relaxed, a friend mine showed me some videos of the shark to the side of the port of Motril, when I saw the video hallucinate how big it was.
If we are confined again in the near future, we will have to get something positive, that the air is cleaned, you see the animals in their pure state and we mentalize our heads by exercising or reading books.
I think that animals are very important in the world because without them we can’t do anything.
ResponderEliminarIn my opinion, sometimes the zoo is important because if not we haven’t known of a lot of animals and plants from other places. However, I don’t like that they are in a cage all the day, because they are sad. But, for example, fishes are better live in a cage than live in the sea with plastic, although sometimes they are sad.
I don´t like anything when a person kills an animal, because this is bad and the man is who go to the habitat not the animal.
I usually see wild animals in my field.

I went to Sierra Nevada two weeks ago and it was one of the best experiences of my life. I went with my classmates and we spent a fun trip. We enjoyed all the journey in the bus and then in Sierra Nevada.
ResponderEliminarWhen I arrived to Sierra Nevada, the trainers gave us the ski material, then we entered in a cable car and we went to our trainer and we skied. After some hours we went to eat and my friends and I went to make new friends to other schools, and then we went skiing again. I had never skied, but I liked it. I fell a lot of times but late I get throw me for a hill. I would repeat this experience again. However, I was so hot and I finished so tired. When we arrived to Salobreña, some of my friends and I went for a colacao.
