Review

1. Complete the text with the words in the box.

Much of the south of England is a coastal habitat next to the sea. Today, sheep and cows enjoy the green grasslands where they can eat. However, 250 million years ago, part of this coast was very different. It was then a hot, wetland, habitat where animals like crocodiles lived in the wat land. We know this because hundreds of fossils are often found here, Many of them are very well preserved, so scientists can study many species of animals from long ago.
