Small Cat is Mighty Hunter

Here, kitty kitty kitty! I love my cat! She's so cute! Did you know that my kitty cat and a lion are part of the same family? It's true! The cat family has big cats, like lions and tigers, and small cats, like my cat. 大型貓科動物包含獅子老虎，小型的就是家貓。 Many people think the lion is the "king" of the cat family… but the lion isn't the best hunter in the cat family. And nope, it's not the tiger either. It's a small wild cat that hunts birds, and mice, and well… any small animal they can catch. 牠是野貓，什麼小動物牠都吃。 The best hunter in the cat family is called the "black-footed cat". 貓科裡面最厲害的獵人是黑足貓，牠的腳是黑色的。 It's only about 25 centimeters tall… that's just a little bigger than my cat! They live in the southern part of Africa. The black-footed cat is always hungry… so every night, it goes hunting… and every night it catches lots of small animals! The black-footed cat is a much better hunter than a lion! 黑足貓每天晚上都出去獵殺很多小動物，比獅子還要猛喔！ The Black-footed cat is the best hunter in the whole cat family! Cool, huh? You don't have to be the biggest to be the best. Now, come here, kitty kitty… good kitty… you eat cat food, ok? No hunting for you… good kitty! ________________________________ Vocabulary 貓科裡面的高明獵人黑足貓，習慣晚上出門打獵。 1. Hunt 打獵，hunter 獵人。 Only the best hunters go hunting in the jungle. 最好的獵人才去叢林裡打獵。 Why?
