Simple Stories in Spanish
Greg, el perro cazador de pitones
Every now and again I am sent a story by a listener. Today’s fascinating, true story comes from Sharon.
The Florida Everglades is facing a big problem. Many of its native species are being killed off by Burmese pythons. However, a dog named Greg is helping to clear to Everglades of this stealthy predator, hunting down snakes invisible to the naked eye.
This story is in the third person and the present and past tenses. Important vocabulary in the story includes: “piton” (python),“pantano” (swamp), “cazar” (to hunt), “cazador” (hunter), and “refugio” (shelter).
