- The wild animals in this place are the goat, the badger, the fox, the hare, the rabbit, the weasel, the lizard and the squirrel. The goat feeds on erbs. He lives in high cliffs and he is a very big animal. People kill goats and use them for food. In the spring the badger gathers a lot of grass and puts it in his burrow for winter. He makes his burrow in the sandybanks. The fox makes his nest under rocks and it is called a den. He kills young lambs and fowl and eats them.(continues on next page)
