My Favorite Animal! by:Ricki R.







Guess what my favorite animal is! Can't guess ok I'll tell you. my favorite animal is an orangutan!
I love orangutans there so cute,orange, and fuzzy,even funny. I want an orangutans as pet. One time while I was at the San Diego Zoo one of the orangutans was making art in the dirt. She was an artist at the Zoo.
And another time when i was at the Zoo a little boy threw his chewed gum over the glass, and it landed on the other side of the glass. Then a boy orangutan came over and put it in his mouth it was nasty. Orangutans are my favorite animal because there so cute in movies and I like when their in movies they hang on people's back.
Here are some facts about Orangutans. The word orangutan means " person of the forest." They are only found in Sumatra and Borneo, and are highly intelligent.
An orangutans arm span is very long , male orangutans arm span can stretch to 7 feet long. They sleep in nest made of leafs that they make. They use huge leafs as umbrellas and shelters. They look for food all day, they eat fruit and leafs, even tree bark and insects.But they rarely eat meat. Male orangutans are loners, they howl to tell other apes to stay out of their way.
Mother and thier young stay together. A female only gives birth every eight years. Orangutans might go into extinction.
So now you know what my favorite animal in the whole wide world is ORANGUTANS!!!
