"Описание материала:

Одна из тем, затрагивающаяся при изучении темы «Окружающая среда», касается охраны животных.

 К сожалению, материал по данной проблеме нелегко найти, поэтому я решила создать презентацию "»People are their enemies».  

Такое название было дано в связи с тем, что именно люди виноваты в том, что животные вымирают.

В данной презентации вы найдете яркие фотографии и достоверные факты о некоторых животных, которые находятся в опасности вымирания, а именно: голубой кит, гигантская панда, индийский носорог, горилла, нильский крокодил, полярный медведь, индийский тигр, африканский слон, попугаи острова Сент-Люсия.
