Small animals like birds, squirrels, mice and insects are a common sight in
many cities and towns. But in recent years, the world's press has been full of
reports of wild animals coming into cities in bigger and bigger numbers. There
have been bears in Vancouver parks, leopards on the streets of Mumbai and
wild pigs in gardens in Berlin.

One of the most interesting cases of wild animals living in a city are the wild
dogs of Moscow. In Moscow, there are approximately 35,000 wild dogs living on
the streets. Some of the dogs were born wild, while others are pets that have
been abandoned by their owners. Some dogs live alone and others live in
packs.

In 2010, scientists studied the dogs and found that the dogs have adapted
remarkably successfully to urban life. They have learned that it is safer to cross
the street with people and some dogs appear to understand traffic lights. Dogs
that live in packs have learnt that humans are more likely to give food to
smaller, cuter dogs so those dogs are sent to beg for food for the whole pack.

Did you know that the ice pop was invented by an 11-year-old boy? In 1905
Frank Epperson accidentally left a glass of water, powdered soda mix and a

it under warm water and the ice pop came out of the glass, using the stick as a
handle. Frank began to make his ice pop creations for his friends and later his
own children.

In 1923, he filed for a patent for his “frozen ice on a stick” invention. A patent is a

great invention!

Hi, Andrea! How’s everything? I just celebrated Hari Raya Aidilfitri. Let
me tell you about it. It fell on the first day of Syawal. We celebrated
raya after fasting for a month in Ramadan. Hari Raya marked our
success in fasting for a whole month. It was a joyful occasion for all
Muslims. During hari raya, we wore our best attire. We went to the
mosque for Raya Prayers. Then, we went home and ate raya food such
as rendang, lontong, and lemang with our family and friends. We
visited our relatives and friends. What about you? Do share about your
special celebration.
