Animals

Isabella Papadimitropoulos Lion Ms. Swanner __lion__ “ROARRRR”is what I heard it sounded so loud! I turned around and saw 2 lions fighting over meat I stop playing with my ball. They were acting mean and tough. One had a dark mane one had light mane the dark mane lion won when he was done with the meat he yawned real loud like he was begging then he lade down then took a nap.

I took notes to find out how lions live. seven other lions came around him four of them were baby’s three of them were girls I guest that girl lions have 4 to 12 baby’s. the left-overs of the meat were eaten by the 4 baby’s and the 2 girl lions .They all took a nap it was in the sun light but under a tree I said to my self I think lions like the sun so it can make them warm and shade to make them not see the sun light. The dark lion woke up and so did the others the dark lion roared so loud it sounded like it was 5 miles away from here. One of the girl lions were hunting and the boy lions were just sitting there and watching them hunt. The dark girl lion caught a zebra. The light lion caught a wild beast. I saw them hunt like this; first she duct in the grass then she crawled down then they got closer and closer then jump in the air and catches the meal. for a lion its called its prey.

The dark boy lion got up and walked away .The others walked with him I took a note I wrote; the lion with the darkest mane is the leader ? So I followed the pack then I saw something with my eyes. The baby lions were not there I went in front of the lions but hid behind a tree I saw the baby lions .They were hanging from there mom/dads mouth the baby’s were carried from their neck it looked like it hurt I got my journal and my pen and wrote; baby lions travel from there mom/dad carrying them by the n eck. p.s baby lions to small/young to walk. I looked up and put away my stuff I saw an other lion. It was limping so I got closer then stopped breathing and died. It look t like it was 16 years old because it looked young I took out my pen and my journal and wrote;  in the wild lions can live to 16 years old in the wild ?

Then I ran to catch up with the pack. They were so far away I said to my self I think they were running it felt like I was gone for 3 seconds so I think lions can run 80 km in 3 seconds. Then I saw the girl lion and the boy lion together. The girl lion had no hair around its neck and the boy lion had hair I notes that the boy lions have a mane girl lions have no mane. I saw the lions looking for food. This time the leader got up and hunted this time the wind was getting harder and harder the lion got down in the grass then crawled forward then jumped in the air and catch a baby elephant. I got my note book and the pen and wrote;  the wind is good for lions the wind can make the smell of the lion and make the sound go away too ?

The lions were finished with its meal then I saw one girl lion get up and she found another boy lion with a lighter mane then they looked eye to eye they got closer then were liking each other then they lied down and slept I got my journal and my pen and wrote; girl lions chose there mate from there mane ? -I wrote down; why lions move -to find a home -to find a mate -to get away from danger -and to get food so I climbed a tree and sit on one of the branches I said to my self for a lion it looks like it is cool for them for me its SO HOT!!!!!!!!!! I remembered that I have a bag so I put away my pen and my journal and felt a big heavy book I picked it up and it was a dictionary of L's I looked up lions and read all the stuff I read is what I wrote down except for one what are lions anemones and it said lions anemones are a few they are cheatas hyenas and more. I was happy but the lions were getting closer to my tree so I took one last look and saw a lion vs a lion one of the lions took its claws and scratch and bite I got my pen and my journal and wrote dawn; <span style="font-family: Franklin Gothic Demi,sans-serif;"> lions protect its self from there claws and there sharp teeth. <span style="font-family: Times New Roman,serif;">so I climbed down and went home then I got my journal and pen and wrote down; lions live in Indea,Madagascar and Africa. Then I said good bye to the lions and went home I was lucky for 2 things; when I was, on my way home it was still day time so I can see and I was lucky that my brother was playing his games and my dad and mom were watching TV my mom said did you have fun out side ? I said yes I did have a lot of fun. So I went to take a shower and went to sleep before I went to sleep I herd a roar “ROARRRRRR” then I said Good night lions.
