Greetings, friends. I'm so glad you are listening to Window on the World. Today we'll continue to find out more about the country and people of Mongolia. The majority of the people live mainly in the central and eastern areas of the country. There are about 9 different groups of Mongol people. Each group has their own dialect or language and traditions.

Most Mongols believe that families are important. In rural or village areas, families are often farmers or shepherds. The youngest son inherits the family home. The father is the head of the family, but the mother is responsible for household affairs. The Mongol men take the job of herding animals. The women take care of milking animals and they also are responsible to prepare food for the family. In the family, older children care for younger brothers and sisters. Elderly parents often live with the family of their youngest son or daughter if there are no sons. Grandparents are treated with great respect because of their wisdom and life experience. The grandparents also pass on their wisdom to their grandchildren. Families who live in the cities, often have both the mothers and fathers working outside the home. Young families in city areas usually have only one or two children. The rural or village families are usually quite a bit larger.

Most rural families live in a tent with a roof frame, and a south-facing door. Its average size is about 6 meters in diameter. The tent is covered with one or more layers of sheep-wool felt and a white cloth. It is easy to put up and take down. This tent is very warm in cold seasons. In city areas, families live in high-rise apartments. Some people in cities even use tent-type buildings. This will have electricity, but not a heating system or running water.

Guests are welcomed in Mongol homes. There is a long tradition of hospitality. Guests are usually greeted by the host and family members at the door in modern apartment buildings, or, in rural areas, outside the tent. Guests often bring the hosts a small gift.

I think it would be interesting to visit a home in Mongolia. I hope you will listen again next week when we find out about the kinds of foods our Mongol friends might serve us. I'll be waiting for you then. Farewell, friends!

Hello, my friends and welcome to Window on the World. Today we'll look at a country in East Asia. Mongolia is a landlocked country. Landlocked means that it is completely surrounded by other countries...no oceans or other large bodies of water. Mongolia's neighbors are Russia to the north and China to the east, south, and west. It has an area of 1,566,500 square kilometers. The population is about 2,410,000 people.

Mongolia is mainly a flat land with rising mountain ranges in the north and west. The Gobi Desert covers a wide dry area of the land in the central and southeast areas. Mongolia's climate has temperatures ranging from -30 to -15 Celsius in winter and 10 to 27 Celsius in summer. The winters are usually dry, and summer rainfall is only 380 millimeters in the mountains and 125 millimeters in the desert. Most of Mongolia's land is really either pasture or areas that have a little grass for animals to eat or desert regions. A desert is an area that has mostly sand and very few trees or plants.

As you can tell, Mongolia is a rather large country. It's climate is usually dry because of the large desert area. Listen again next week, when we'll learn about the people who live in Mongolia. Goodbye for now, friends.

Welcome to Window on the World. Each week we discover so many interesting things about countries around the world. This is our final week to learn about China. Today we will focus on the animals that make their homes in Mainland China.

You can find such a large variety of animals there. I was surprised to find many different kinds of birds. Did you know that there are two different types of owls that live in China? They are the Long?eared Owl and the Snowy Owl. The Long Eared Owl has large ears that provide it with excellent hearing. It also has fantastic eyesight. It can spot a mouse 600 meters away. The Snowy Owl is totally white. It can completely camouflage or hide itself in the snowy landscape of northern China. It has feathers that covers its legs and powerful claws.

Several other interesting birds are the Golden Oriole, the Hoopoe, and the Bearded Vulture. The Golden Oriole is colored with gold and black feathers. The Hoopoe has a large fan-shaped crest on its head and a black and white striped tail. It often has a very foul-smelling nest! The Bearded Vulture is magnificent in flight. It has a 3-meter wingspan and can reach speeds of 130 kilometers per hour. Another flying creature is the Long?eared Bat. It is small and usually seen at night. It eats small insects while flying but often saves larger insects to eat later. The Long-eared Bat has a bag of skin stretched between its legs, that is used to store the bigger insects for eating later.

Besides birds, you will also find a variety of mammals. Do you remember that mammals are animals that have hair or fur and feed milk to their babies? Some larger mammals are the Tiger, Wild Cat, Elk, Wild Boar, Red Fox, Red Squirrel, Sika Deer, the Siberian Ibex and the Common Hamster. The Elk is a huge member of the deer family. It is a tireless runner that can outrun a horse. The male Elk has enormous antlers. It uses them for fighting other animals and can often kill a wolf or bear. The Siberian Ibex is a wild goat of the high Himalaya Mountains. It can be found at elevations of up to 5,000 meters. It often roams in herds of 20 to 40. The ibex uses its long, broad, knotted horns for fighting off attacks by leopards, wolves, and bears. The Sika Deer is a spotted deer and often rare or hard to find in China. It weighs up to 110 kilograms. The Common Hamster is about 36 centimeters long. This wild hamster is larger than hamsters that are sometimes sold as pets. It can dig a hole or burrow up to 24 meters deep, where it hibernates or sleeps most of the winter. In the springtime, it gathers seeds and nuts at night. The Common Hamster then stores its food in its large cheek pouches.

Two interesting reptiles found in China are the Green Toad and the Chinese Alligator. Remember that reptiles have scales and no fur or hair. They are often egg-layers. The Green Toad has brilliant green blotches covering its dull?colored body. They live in ponds and are found in the spring and summer. The male Green Toads sing to attract the females. The chirping sound is loud and can be heard a mile away. The other larger reptile is the Chinese alligator. It is the only alligator of the Eastern Hemisphere. It lives exclusively on the lower stretch of the Yangtze River. The Chinese alligator eats turtles, and small? to medium?size animals, including chickens and dogs. Adults grow to about 2 meters in length and have a short snout or nose. Chinese alligators have been hunted for their meat and skin.

There are so many interesting animals that live in China! I really learned so much about them! I hope you did too! Please join me again next week when we open our Window on the World on a new country! Goodbye for now, friends!
