Meet my little pet dog named Rocky. He is a German Shepherd and has been part
of my family for the last 3 years. He is friendly and playful. Anyway, outsiders often
consider him dangerous. This is due to the wavy coat texture and grey color of his body.
He is so alert at every moment and protects our home at all times.
Everyone in my family likes Rocky. We all treat him like a family member. I love
to take Rocky outside for some fresh air and sunshine. Rocky’s hair is super fluffy. That’s
what I like most. I like to wash it and play with it. Rocky will even walk right in the
shower with me! He also loves the blow-dryer and try to bite it at the warm air.
My family cannot even imagine life without him, especially me. I am the youngest

home but I never feel lonely. Rocky is always with me. We like having fun together. To

Leopard is a wild cat of Africa and Asia. They are sometimes called panthers.
The scientific name of the leopard is Panthera Pardus. They are found in forests,
deserts, grasslands, mountains, and rocky places. They are skilled climbers and
good swimmers.
Leopards are fierce predators that hunt mainly at night. Their prey includes
antelope, deer, dogs, and baboons. Leopards also eat cattle and may attack
humans. Sometimes they drag their prey high into a tree to protect it from other
animals.

Cheetah is the fastest land animal on Earth. They live in the wild parts of
Africa. Most cheetahs live in grasslands and dry, open areas.
Small black spots cover most of the cheetah’s sandy yellow fur. The belly is
white, and the tail is marked with dark rings. Black lines run from the eyes to the
corners of the mouth. Cheetah measures about 2 meters long, from the head to the
tip of the tail. It is a slender mammal that weighs about 34 to 54 kilograms. Its
body is built for speed. Long legs allow the cheetah to take big strides. Hard paws
and exposed claws help it to grip the ground.
Cheetahs hunt small animals during the day. After creeping up on an animal,
they sprint at it from a few hundred feet away. They can keep up the chase for only
a short time before tiring.
