Geese on a highway – level 2
A family of Canadian geese caused travel chaos on Monday. They walked down a busy motorway near Chicago.
Hundreds of cars drove past the two adult geese and their five goslings. Police escorted the animals safely into a nearby neighbourhood.
Difficult words: chaos (lots of problems), gosling (young goose), escort (to take somebody somewhere).
You can read the original story and watch the video in the Level 3 section.
Do you have geese in your country?
