9 out of ten animals prefer the wild to the zoo:)


9 out of ten animals prefer the wild to the zoo:)
I think that 9 out of ten animals prefer the wild to the zoo. Because they can run around and have fun. Also in the wild they can be free.
They can have a choice of what they want for tea by hunting it.
In the wild animals can run like the wind. In the zoo the lion cubs cage is as tight as a box. Have you seen the small small cages? The animals are like lightning when they run and they look like a blur. All the animals at the zoo Lions, Leopards, Cheetahs and Jaguars they all  prefer the wild to the zoo because they are all big cats.

I love that your writing offers the point of view from the animal, and shows that you think about what they would want for themselves.
I admire how you form your sentences with beautiful prose (look that word up in your dictionary!) and imagery.  Describing the animals moving fast in two different ways is very clever and avoids repetition.
I would like your future writing to be more specific to the topic you are thinking of – you mention all animals but your writing indicates you are thinking of big cats, so perhaps you could be clear on that?
Great job my clever girl J You could be a journalist one day, and write stories that help to save the lives of animals in exotic places!
