Animals in the City
Recently, there have been many reports in newspapers and on TV about big animals coming into towns and cities. What happens when big animals come into our cities? Is it a good thing or is it dangerous for us and the animals?
Wild animals usually come into cities to look for food. In Cape Town, South Africa, baboons(狒狒)sometimes come into the suburbs. They eat fruit from gardens and go into people’s kitchens! Baboons are strong animals and sometimes they scare children and fight with pet dogs. Many people do not like them, but the city can be dangerous for baboons too. Sometimes, baboons are hurt in car accidents. The city council in Cape Town has a team of Baboon Monitors. Their job is to find baboons in the city and take them back to the countryside. The problem is that a lot of baboons will come back to the city to find food again.
In Berlin, Germany, groups of wild pigs sometimes come into the city to look for food. They eat flowers and plants and dig in gardens and parks in the city. They also walk in the street and cause traffic accidents. Some city residents like the pigs and give them food. But the city council is worried about the traffic accidents. They have told people to stop giving the pigs food and have put up fences to stop the pigs from coming into the city.
In Moscow, Russia, there are 35,000 wild dogs. They live in parks, empty houses,markets and train stations. Some of the dogs were pets that people did not want, so they left them on the streets. Others were born on the streets and have always lived there. A lot of people like them and are used to seeing them on the streets. They give the dogs food and water. They even build small huts for the dogs to live in during the very cold winter.

【文章大意】城市里的动物
近来,报纸和电视上不断有关于大型动物进入城镇的报道。当大型动物进入我们的城市时会发生什么?这对我们和动物来说是好事还是危险?
野生动物通常进入城市寻找食物。在南非开普敦,狒狒有时会进入郊区。他们从花园里吃水果,然后进入人们的厨房!狒狒是强壮的动物,有时它们会吓唬孩子并与宠物狗打架。许多人不喜欢它们,但这座城市对狒狒来说也很危险。有时,狒狒在车祸中受伤。开普敦市议会有一个狒狒监视团队。他们的工作是在城里找到狒狒,然后把它们带回乡下。问题是很多狒狒会再次回到城市寻找食物。
在德国柏林,有时会有成群的野猪进城觅食。他们吃花草,在城市的花园和公园里挖土。他们还走在街上,造成交通事故。一些城市居民喜欢猪并给它们食物。但市议会担心交通事故。他们告诉人们不要再给猪吃东西,并竖起栅栏阻止猪进城。
在俄罗斯莫斯科,有35,000只野狗。他们住在公园、空房子、市场和火车站。有些狗是人们不想要的宠物,所以人们把它们留在街上。其它的一些出生在街头,一直住在那里。很多人喜欢它们,而且习惯在街上看到它们。他们给狗食物和水。他们甚至在非常寒冷的冬天为狗狗建造小屋。
