Animal Collecting, India, Chapter Four

It was sunrise, and Jack and John went out in a large truck to capture an Indian elephant. They found a herd that had about 20 elephants in it, and looked at them to decide which one to try to capture. John grabbed Jack's arm. Am I imagining things, or is that a white elephant? Jack looked, and he saw it to. It must be an albino! He said. An albino elephant is very rare. They decided that they would try to capture it. They came nearer, and lured it into a cage with some mangoes and captured it.

Galapagos Adventure, Introduction

Peter was going on a trip to the Galapagos islands (a group of islands about 2,600 miles away from America, famous for having many animals on it that only live there, such as the Galapagos tortoise and the Marine iguana). One night, he woke up in the midde of a storm, with his boat sinking! The boat didn't have any lifeboats, so Peter grabbed a gun, bullets, gunpowder and a bag of corn, threw a barrel overboard, dived in after it, and swam to one of the Galapagos islands that was nearby, resting on the barrel when he was tired. Unluckily, it was uninhabited (nobody lived on it), but he at least survived the storm. Two and a half years later, he lived in a large cave, had a pet Galapagos hawk (a large, brown hawk breed. The main predator of the Galapagos islands) called Flyer and owned a large cornfield. Galapagos Hawk

Going Sailing

Last holiday my family & I went sailing. First we got on a small boat, and then sailed to a bigger one, which we sailed on for about an hour. I got a weird feeling that I sometimes get on airplanes when the boat went over the waves. I hope we go again sometime!
