Describe a unique animal you've encountered.: IELTS Speaking Cue Card

The one animal that caught my eye is a dolphin. I was always intrigued by the dolphins because they just provide a sense of excitement and something that is cute. Moreover, when I got to know about the existence of pink dolphins, I was very fascinated by it. Pink dolphins are usually found in the Amazon river. I never actually saw a pink dolphin in real life but I did a little research about pink dolphins on the internet. Pink is a colour that is pretty and considered pleasant and a dolphin that is pink in colour is something that would excite children.

Yes, my favorite animal or the animal which I have in my home is a domestic animal which is cat. Yeah, I got this cat from a street side one day. It was a small young one when I was taking the cat to my home. So it was just standing alone in the street, so I thought that if I took that to home, maybe it would survive for a longer time. Because of that, I took that to home. So when I helped the cat, it was just a newborn cat and doesn't know anything. I didn't know even what to feed and how to take care. It was literally too much thin without having any food for few days. And yeah, I rescued it and gave as much as support as possible from my side. So yeah, I love the cat because it has grown a little bit more and now I think he is a child for now. And recently, we experienced an incident like it was very rainy and there was a snake came in our house veranda. So this cat already saved us from... in the night time, the cat actually bit the snake and rescued us. It is a huge support from the cat side and I am glad to have a cat as a pet in my home.

My family owns a huge terrace garden and in our garden there are many trees and bushes of flower plants and fruit plants so it's only natural that animals would be attracted to such a garden. Last summer we have found a beehive. It wasn't as big, it was really small, filled with bees. But to my surprise none of them attacked on us. That's when I learned that a bee won't sting you until and unless you have triggered them or caused any harm to their hive. They spend the entire summer on a terrace buzzing around, pollinating and increasing our flowers with their natural habitat. I was surprised by their calm nature and intelligence. Even when I would go up to give water to the plants, I never once got stung by them. This shows that even an animal with the most tiniest brain could be brilliant.

A unique animal that I can describe that I have seen with my eyes is a Pangolin. I have seen it near a national park. It is quite unique because of its scales that it produces to defend itself. And also, it's the only mammal that has scales all over its body, apart from its mouth and the lower part, near the abdomen. It doesn't have scales there. But it doesn't attack humans at all. It's quite humble and everything. It is not aggressive at all. When it gets scared or something like that, then it will turn up into a ball. It will just wind up into a ball. It's unfortunate that it does that. Because poachers usually just take it away. It comes into the red list of highest animals that are getting poached. It tops the list of that. Apart from that, that's it.

So the unique animal in my point of view is Tiger. Tiger is a very unique animal because it has a lot of unique things. It has an aura that defines it is very unique. Because every animal are scared of tiger and it has a lot of ability to confirm it's uniqueness. Because the Tiger and Leopard and also Leopard have a unique confidence. It's speed, it's roaring, it's hunting, it's action. It is very unique and difficult for other animals. Some animals and some other animals, wild animals have that hunting ability. The Leopard is very fast hunting. In a minor seconds and minutes it hunted and ate all the animals. And I love the Leopard, I love the Leopard's action, Tiger's action. And it's intensity and it's mindset and it's aura. Because the Tiger is a very good animal and every animal have fear of that. And the Tiger is very challenging animal and it's very wild and the conqueror. And sometimes the people are saying the Tiger are the king of the jungle. And I agree with it because it has, because he has the king of the jungle. Because of it's aura, it's action and it's hunting experiences. That's it.
