My favourite animal

A horse is a herbivore land mammal. They can be domesticated so that people can ride them. If you own a horse it can either be stable kept or feild kept. Stable kept is where you put a horse in a stable/stall for most of the day, taking some time in a feild to graze, whereas a feild kept horse is a horse who lives in a feild all the time.A normal sized horse is 14 - 15 hand high.Domesticated horses live with people but Wild horses prefer, open land.They sleep in a barn, or shed.They tend to sleep during the middle of daylight hours and grouped together with always one watching for danger.Horses like to run around and play with their herd buddies or friends and they like to eat grass.

Lince ibérico

Lynx is a genus of carnivorous mammals of the family Felidae commonly known as lynx. Four species are known characterized by its medium size, strong legs, long ears, short tail and body more or less mottled. All species live exclusively in the Northern Hemisphere, Eurasia and North America (of which seem to originate). The so-called African Lynx (Caracal caracal), living in Africa and much of West and Central Asia, is actually related to a feline barely keeps some external similarities with representatives Lynx result of evolutionary convergence, as are its tail exceptionally short (little more than a stump), and large ears, crowned with long tufts of black hair on the tip that serve to increase their already great audition. There are also some characteristic tufts of long hair on the cheeks. This is preferably forest animals. The Iberian lynx inhabiting forests of Mediterranean type, while the Eurasian and Canadian alternating coniferous and deciduous. They can also live in areas cleared, as the tundra. The bobcat is common both in forests and in the great plains and scrub areas of central and western North America. The most common prey are lagomorphs and rodents of some size, which added more occasionally birds and small ungulates such as deer and baby deer and mouflon. Small carnivores, including wild cats included, nor escape predation. The coat has different colors depending on the species and subspecies of the question. The Canadian lynx and Eurasian range from yellowish brown and developing a longer coat and gray in winter. The Iberian lynx is brown while the bobcat, as the name suggests, has a brown coat - red. The four species have spots and stripes whose density varies individually. Usually, animals are spotted more intensely living further south. The largest species is the Eurasian, which can reach up to 30 kg, and the smaller the Iberian rarely reaches 20 kg

HORSES
Horses are great animals. They usually live in farms, but they´re wild horses too.They are very big animals, they have 205 bones.  Horses live between 25 and 40 years and they sleep at night. Horses eat vegetables and fruits and they drink water. They love to run. Many farmers have horses to do hard work or to take them from a place to another. I would like to have a horse.

  MY FAVOURITE ANIMAL
My favourite animal  is the elephant.There are three tipes of elephants :The african bush elephant,
the african forest elephant and the asian elephant.I like the two africans the most.
The elephants are the biggest animals on land.They are uasually three metres high.The biggest elephant was 3,96metres high and it weighed more than 10,000kilogras.
Elephants are herbibores and they spend up to 16 hours a day eating plants.They sleep during three to six hours.
A female elphant wants a strong and a big male elephant for reproduction.A small elephant weights about 115kilograms and it's 75 centimetres tall.

The tiger is the largest cat speciesIt is the third largest land carnivore

The Tiger has a long body, a short neck, and a firm head with a short muzzle that contains a set of sharp teeth. Tigers have stout legs that end in broad paws. A well fed tiger is bulky, broad in the shoulders, back, and loins. Males are generally longer and heavier than females. The average length for males is about 6 feet long and with a tail length of 3 feet long. Females are usually 6 to 12 inches shorter in body length.

A tiger's fur color varies from orange-red to tawny yellow, with a lot of black stripes that have different lengths and widths. The cheeks, throat, and the insides of the ears and legs are white. The back of the ear is black with a white spot in the center.

Tigers once ranged widely across Asia, from Turkey in the west to the eastern coast of Russia.

DOG




The present lineage of dogs was domesticated from gray wolves about 15,000 years ago.[5] Though remains of domesticated dogs have been found in Siberia and Belgium from about 33,000 years ago, none of those lineages seem to have survived the Last Glacial Maximum. Although mDNA testing suggests an evolutionary split between dogs and wolves around 100,000 years ago, no specimens prior to 33,000 years ago are clearly morphologically domesticated dog.

Dogs' value to early human hunter-gatherers led to them quickly becoming ubiquitous across world cultures. Dogs perform many roles for people, such as hunting, herding, pulling loads, protection, assisting police and military, companionship, and, more recently, aiding handicapped individuals. This impact on human society has given them the nickname "Man's Best Friend" in the Western world. In some cultures, dogs are also a source of meat. In 2001, there were estimated to be 400 million dogs in the world.

RABBIT

Rabbits are small mammals in the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, found in several parts of the world. There are eight different genera in the family classified as rabbits, including the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus), cottontail rabbits (genus Sylvilagus; 13 species), and the Amami rabbit (Pentalagus furnessi, an endangered species on Amami Ōshima, Japan). There are many other species of rabbit, and these, along with pikas and hares, make up the order Lagomorpha. The male is called a buck and the female is a doe; a young rabbit is a kitten or kit.

HORSES
    The horse is a magnificent animal.  Are very high, measuring about 155cm till 170cm. When are wild horses live in open areas, such as grasslands, plains , plateaus , barren or semi-desert.
   They have an average lifespan of 25-40 years in captivity and in the wild they live around 25 years. The inclination of the incisors increases with time and is used to determine the age of the horse. It is normal in any case more live. Not reach maturity until age 4 when they stop being foals, at this age they begin to tame and ride. At 4 years are considered adult horses, and tend to calm down. A healthy horse can be ridden well into their 20 years.
   Horses are able to sleep both standing up and lying down. They sleep better when in groups because some animals will sleep while others stand guard to watch for predators. A horse kept alone will not sleep well because its instincts are to keep a constant eye out for danger.
   Horses are usually eating grass , oats , corn…
