Amina My favourite animal is the chameleon. I like them because they can change colour. Lots of people think that chameleons change colour to match where they are. But that's not true! Chameleons change colour when they're scared or angry, or when they're too cold or too hot. Chameleons have got a very long, sticky tongue that they use to catch insects. I think they're amazing animals!

Aarav I really love elephants. I love their big ears and long trunks. Elephants can pick up food with their trunk and put it in their mouth, or collect water in their trunk and spray it out. I like watching elephants in videos and I especially love baby elephants. They're so cute.

Isabella Dolphins are my favourite animals. I like them because they're so intelligent and friendly. Some dolphins live in zoos and they have to do tricks, like jumping or playing with balls. That makes me really sad. I think it's cruel. We should let dolphins live in the sea, where they can swim, jump and be happy.
