What does Kooper love most about nature?

I love nature because of the animals. I like learning about wildlife and how they live in the wild. It is really interesting to see what animals eat, where they live, and what they do to stay safe and survive. Some animals hunt for food, some hide from predators, and some work together in groups. I like watching animals and learning new facts about them. Nature is really cool because every animal has its own way of living and surviving. When I’m outside, I like looking for all animals.


What is Kooper's favorite animal—and why?

My favorite animal is the tiger because I think it is amazing how it hunts. Tigers move quietly and sneak through the grass before they jump to catch their food. I think it is really cool how strong and smart they are when they hunt. I like their colors and how they camouflage. Their sounds are incredible.


What is Kooper's favorite outdoor activity?

Fishing is my favorite thing to do outside. I like casting my line and waiting for a fish to bite. When the bobber goes under, it is really exciting to reel the fish in. Sometimes the fish fight and pull hard. I also like being outside by the water and seeing birds, turtles, and frogs. Fishing is fun because I can spend time with family and enjoy nature. Even when I don’t catch a fish, I still have fun being outside and trying. I love fishing like Johnny Morris, he’s my hero.
