    Describe a wild animal you want to learn more about

    The cue card

    Describe a wild animal you want to learn more about.

    How to answer it

    The card asks what you want to learn, not what you know, so build it around a question you actually have — how they navigate, why they migrate, how they survive a winter. That framing rescues you from needing facts you do not have and sounds far more natural than a recited encyclopaedia entry.

    What moves the band

    • Nature lexis: they're native to, endangered, in the wild, habitat loss, they hunt in packs.
    • The zoo questions want both sides: conservation and education against confinement.

    Part 3 questions reported with it

    Part 3 follows the topic of the cue card, so these are the discussion questions the same candidates were asked next.

    • Why should animals be protected?
    • Should children visit zoos?
    • What role do zoos play?

    These are candidate recalls. These are questions reported by test-takers after their exams, not official or leaked IELTS material. Wording varies by test version, location and memory. Use them for timed practice — never as a prediction of what you will be asked.
