A Colourful Little Battle

for the Red Handfish

Critically Endangered

By Ada, age 5

Two fish, one little worm… and they both want it! My underwater world is full of bright colours and funny sea creatures. These two fish found a little worm, but they both wanted to eat it. So they started to have a little fight! They look very serious, but I think they are a little bit funny too. I wonder who will get the worm?
