El Yunque Forrest
By Natanel B.


 

El Yunque is  a big mountain range that has rivers and in the rivers there are lot of little pieces of gold. There is a river that is called “La Mina’every time you come to visit El Yunque a lot of tourists are there are lot of tourists are there El Yunke  thereare lot of parrots and a lot of different kinds of animals. There is famous story about  chupacabra. The people say that if you are lost in El Yunque it is hard to get back to the road so that police can see you. I know a story that tells about some guy that was lost in El Yunque about two months and he had to eat some animals in the, grass and bark from the trees so he didn’t die in El Yunque he was a scientist who was doing experiments about some plants and animals.  Later they found him but they kept thinking about the aliens that they think are in El Yunque.
 In school they make trips to El Yunque but we have to watch out because you can get lost really quickly in those rivers and forests.  My father and my father’s friend and I went crabbing in the night and my father had to bring his gun because we heard a lot of sounds of animals.  People say that if the aliens will see you they are going to take you.  I know stories about those people that they took.  They say that when the aliens take you they are going to do experiments with humans.  They want to know how the humans are, but all thoughts about El Yunque.
Everybody knows that El Yunque is still nice and beautiful.  People are cleaning it up and the government hired security guards to make sure it stays clean like it was five or nine years ago.  But right now El Yunque is a tourist place that everyone can go to.  Now, in the year 2001 it is more beautiful than in my grandparents' time.
