One possible version:
Whales are very large animals. They live in the sea and they eat a lot of small fish and other sea animals. They can jump high out of the water.
However, whales are endangered now. Humans catch whales for their meat, fat and oil. Other problems such as ocean pollution and terrible weather also cause the number of whales to go down.
To protect them, the government should make strict rules to stop people killing them and polluting the sea. Everyone should play a part in protecting whales and other endangered wild animals.
