UNIT 3 ANIMAL WORLD Reading WHO’S AFRAID OF THE BIG BAD WOLF? Do you remember the wolves in “Little Red Riding Hood” and “The three Little Pigs”? Wolves are usually the bad characters in books and films. There are hundreds of stories about wolves attacking cows, sheep and pigs, and eating little children, too. But what are wolves like in real life? 1

Some people become wolves at night. We call them werewolves.
Fact In real life, wolves almost never kill people. In fact, they are afraid of us! Wolves only hunt for food. They don’t kill for fun. They sometimes kill sheep, but they usually eat wild animals and birds. In real life, wolves aren’t very good hunters. They can run after 15 different animals but in the end, they only catch one of them Wolves sleep during the day and hunt at night. It can be very frightening to see an animal’s yellow eyes at night, but wolves aren’t evil. They are just animals with a different timetable! Wolves are very social animals. They live in groups, and they howl to talk to each other. Each wolf has got a different voice-just like people Werewolves don’t exist. But the stories about them are really exciting!
