Removal of items in .txt using python

[nanakochan]

Thank you for all your advice and suggestions.
I tried again. It still doesnt work. I failed to remove the item by user input. This is my code-

animalslist = open ('C:\\Users\\defaultuser100000\\animals.txt')
items = animalslist.read()
nlist = [items]
out = str(input("Enter items to be removed"))
if out == items:
    nlist.remove(out)
animalslist = open('C:\\Users\\defaultuser100000\\animals.txt', 'w' )
animalslist.write(items)
animalslist.close()
nlist = [items.replace('\n',' ') for items in nlist]
print ("You now have")
print (nlist)
print("in your list")
