The English people like animals very much. Pet: dogs, cats,

horses, ducks, canaries, chickens and other friends of men have a

much better life in Britain, than anywhere else. In Britain they

have special dog shops, selling food, clothes and other things

for dogs. There are dog hair-dressing saloons and dog cemetries.

The English arrange dogs' shows and organize dogs' supper parties

for winners of dogs' competitions. They do all they can to make

animals feel well in their home and outside their homes too.

There were photographs in English newspapres of a mother duck and

her young family, crossing slowly the road from Hyde Park to

Kensington Garden. All traffic around was stopped to let Mamma

Duck and her little ones walked quitly from one park to another.

In recent years the English began to show love for more exotic

animals such as crocodiles, elephants, tigers, cobras, camels.

You won't be surprised, we think, when we tell you that London

Airport has a special "animal hotel". Every year thousands of

animals arrive at London Airport, some stay the night there;

others stay several weeks. In one month, for example, "the hotel"

looked after 47000 creatures: birds, insects, fish, elephants,

mpnkey and other animals. There are about 4000000 dogs, 6000000

cats, 8000000 caged birds and lots of other animals in Britain.

The English people belive that they are the only nation on the

Earth that is really kind to its animals.
