Have you ever seen an animal like this one? It is called a wombat. Wombats are from Australia, and they don't live in any other place on the earth.
Wombats live underground in tunnels that they dig. They usually sleep during the day and come out to look for food at night.
Wombats look cute when they are young, like the wombat in this picture, but when they get big, they can weigh up to 35kg. Wombats are very strong animals, and they scratch and bite animals that might try to eat them. Sometimes animals try to follow wombats into their tunnels to attack them, but a wombat's backside is very hard, so biting it from behind usually doesn't work. (Kayleen Hartman, staff writer)

你看過像這樣子的動物嗎？它叫做「袋熊」。袋熊是澳洲的動物，在世界其他地方絕對看不到。
袋熊住在自己挖掘的地下隧道裡。牠們通常在白天睡覺，晚上出外覓食。
年幼的袋熊模樣可愛，就像這張照片裡的袋熊，不過牠們長大時，體重可達三十五公斤。袋熊是非常強壯的動物，會抓傷、啃咬想獵食牠們的動物。有時候動物想跟蹤袋熊到地道內攻擊牠們，但袋熊的臀部相當堅硬，想從背後咬牠們通常一點用處也沒有。 （翻譯：賴美君）
The third-hottest July worldwide ended a string of record-breaking temperatures last month, but many regions were still devastated by extreme weather amplified by global warming, the European climate monitoring service said Thursday last week.

Peacocks are among the most beautiful birds in the world. Their bright feathers and graceful movements have fascinated humans for centuries. These magnificent creatures belong to the pheasant family and are found in regions across Asia and Africa. Let’s explore peacocks’ unique characteristics and cultural significance. There are three main species of peacock: the well-known Indian peafowl, native to South Asia; the endangered green peafowl from Southeast Asia; and the rare Congo peafowl, found in African rainforests. Although the term “peacock” technically refers only to males, many people use it for both sexes. Male peacocks display their colorful tail feathers, which
