"I have a collection of 41 different animals - they cost about 20p each and most of them are plastic. My favourites are two dragons, a toucan, and a cow. I started the collection when I was about three. The first model I got was a duck. It's colour is very faded now."  MoreRepts World Summaries TV/Radio

"Would you like it if someone was destroying your home? Well this is what's happened to our marine life. Thousands of dolphins die each year by getting caught in fishermen's nets, as well as being threatened by pollution and hunters. Whales are also being hunted for their meat and oil, despite a worldwide ban. Urgent help's needed to save many marine animals."  MoreRepts World Summaries TV/Radio

"Huge oil deposits have been found under the sea. Plans are being made to drill them - which means more people and ships in areas where walruses live. Their feeding grounds may also be dredged by companies wanting to collect clams from the sea bed. If clam beds are destroyed the walruses may not have enough food."  MoreRepts World Summaries TV/Radio
