Tigers are the largest member of the cat family and are renowned for their power and strength.

There were eight tiger subspecies at one time, but there became extinct during the 20^th century. Over the last 100 years, hunting and forest destruction have reduced tiger’s populations from hundreds of thousands of animals to perhaps fewer than 2.500. Tigers are hunted as trophies, and also for the body parts that are used in traditional Chinese medicine. All five remaining tigers subspecies and endangered, and many protection programs are in place.

Tigers live alone and aggressively scent- mark large territories to keep their rivals away. They are powerful nocturnal hunters that travel many miles to find buffalo, deer, wild pigs, and other large mammals. Tigers use their distinctive coats as camouflage. Despite their fearsome reputation, most tigers avoid humans; however a few do become dangerous man eaters.

Thousands of baby penguins in Antarctica have died from starvation after their parents failed to find food across unusually extensive sea ice. Only two chicks survived from a colony of 40,000 penguins after it suffered a catastrophic breeding season earlier this year.

Despite low ice early in the season, penguins in Terre Adelie in east Antarctica had to travel much further for food, leaving their chicks to starve. While Adelie penguins are generally faring well in east Antarctica, they are declining in the peninsula, have already felt the effects of climate change.Back then, the combination of heavy sea ice with unusually warm weather and rain, followed by a drop in temperature, left many chicks freezing to death.

‘The region is impacted by environmental changes that are linked to the breakup of the Mertz glacier since 2010,’ said Yan Ropert-Coudert, who leads the Adelie penguin programme next to the colony.

Once upon a time, there was a gang of evil goblins who lived in a forest. They spent a lot of their time making fun of a poor old man who could now hardly move, see, or hear. They showed no respect for his age.

The situation became so extreme that the Great Wizard decided to teach the goblins a lesson. He cast a spell, and from that moment, every insult they directed at the old man made the old man better, but had the opposite effect on the goblin who was doing the insulting.

Certainly, the goblins knew nothing about what was happening. The more they called the man an "old fool", the younger and sharper of mind he became, while the goblin who had shouted at him aged rapidly, and became a little more foolish.

As time went on, those evil goblins were becoming terribly old, ugly, stupid, and clumsy without even realizing it. Finally, the Great Wizard allowed the goblins to see themselves, and, terrified, they saw that they had turned into the disgusting creatures we now know as trolls.

They had been so busy picking on the old man, that it had made them incapable of noticing that their own acts were turning them into monsters. And when they finally realized what they had done, it was too late.

A man who lived a long time ago believed that he could read the future in the stars. He spent his time at night gazing at the sky.

One evening, he was walking along the open road outside the village. His eyes were fixed on the stars. He thought he saw the end of the world was at a hand, when all at once, down he went into a hole full of mud and water. There he stood up to his ears, in the muddy water, and madly clawed at the slippery sides of the hole in his effort to climb out.

His cries for help soon brought the villagers running. As they pulled him out of the mud, one of them said,”You pretend to read the future in the stars, and yet you fail to see what is at your feet!
