You are spending the summer doing some volunteer work for your city. Write an email to your English friend telling him/her about it (80-100 words).
Hi, Lisa,
How are You?
I have just seen Discovery channel and founded something interesting.
Do You know Hippopotamus, that look like giant, cute pigs, and live mostly in Africa? It is estimated that the wild population of these animals in the world is between 125—150 thousands only.
Hippos have suffered because of poaching and is an endangered species. They are poached for trophies and especially their ivory teeth, that may be kept as trophies. Thanks to the Governments for the ban on international trade of the ivory.
We should all help this animal to survive.
Write back soon.
Lera.
