WILD ANIMALS
00:04
Some animals live in forests.
00:08
These animals are called wild animals.
00:13
Leopard,
00:16
Tiger,
00:19
Elephant,
00:21
and Fox are wild animals.
00:26
HOMES
00:29
We already know that domestic animals depend on human beings for food and shelter.
00:40
But wild animals live on their own.
00:45
Animals living on land are called land animals.
00:51
Animals living in water are called water animals.
00:58
Some animals live both on land as well as in water.
01:06
There are some animals which live in and on trees too.
01:14
Like you and me, all animals have their own homes where they go and stay.
01:24
Like the lion lives in a den,
01:28
the birds build nests,
01:31
while the snakes live in holes in the ground.
01:36
Some animals like the giraffes and zebras live in the open grasslands.
01:45
They do not need a shelter over their head.
01:49
The place where an animal lives is called its habitat.
01:56
Like the camels live in the desert,
02:00
zebras and giraffes in the grasslands,
02:04
tigers, bears and owls in the jungle,
02:10
and the dolphin and octopus in water.
02:17
EATING
02:19
All wild animals have different eating habits.
02:24
Some animals are vegetarians,
02:28
that is, they eat only plants,
02:32
whereas some are non-vegetarian,
02:36
that is, they hunt for their food.
02:40
Some animals like cows, buffalos and horses eat only plants and plant pots.
02:50
Such animals are called herbivores.
02:57
Some animals like tigers,
03:00
leopards,
03:02
frogs,
03:04
lions,
03:06
eagles and snakes
03:08
eat other animals.
03:12
Such animals are called carnivores.
03:20
Some animals like bears,
03:22
crows,
03:24
rats and man
03:26
eat both plants and animals.
03:31
Such animals are called omnivores.
03:36
Some animals like vultures and hyenas eat dead animals.
03:44
They are called scavengers.
03:50
Many animals are both predator or hunter and prey.
03:59
Now let us learn how we can protect these animals.
04:06
Huge animals like the dinosaurs and the mammoth
04:11
have become extinct centuries back due to natural events.
04:18
The term extinct is used for species which are no longer known to exist in the world.
04:27
Before a species is declared extinct,
04:31
scientists carry out repeated searches of their possible habitats
04:38
and if they don't find any record for 50 years,
04:44
the species is termed extinct.
04:50
There are many species like the dodo and the Japanese sea lion
04:58
which no longer exist because of us.
05:04
It is true that no animal or plant species lives forever
05:10
but the pace at which they are disappearing now is a matter of concern.
05:19
Extinction is a natural process
05:23
but in the past few years,
05:26
species are becoming extinct faster than normal.
05:33
The reasons are not natural calamities this time but human activities.
05:42
We are destroying their habitats by building roads,
05:48
apartments, offices, bridges, factories, electricity generating plants, etc.
06:04
We are polluting their homes with fertilizers and garbage
06:10
and we are also poaching them for wildlife trade which is of course illegal.
06:19
Wild animals are poached for their meat,
06:24
horns,
06:26
tusks,
06:28
claws
06:30
and skin.
06:32
This beautiful quail has not been seen for the last 138 years.
06:41
It was last seen in 1876.
06:48
This pretty pink-headed duck has not been spotted since the 1950s.
06:56
While the cheetah is alive and thriving in Africa,
07:02
it has not been seen in India since 1949.
07:10
Uncontrolled hunting of wildlife for pleasure,
07:16
food,
07:18
fur,
07:20
skin,
07:22
horns,
07:23
bones,
07:25
tusks,
07:27
etc.
07:29
pose a serious threat to the survival of wildlife.
07:33
Wildlife is nature's gift to us.
07:37
We must cherish and protect it.
