you can use this code

var text = mylist.FirstOrDefault(x => x.Contains("3"));
// note: text will be **null** if not found in the list

The following should do the service:

        List<string> mylist = new List<string>() { "1-Cat", "2-Dog", "3-Wolf", "4-Mouse" };
        // My List Contains : 1-Cat , 2-Dog , 3-Wolf , 4-Mouse
        string text = "";
        text = mylist.FirstOrDefault(x => x.Contains('3')); // text will be 3-Wolf. In case there is no strings in the list that contains 3 text will be null.

        // If you want do some other things if the list contains "3" you can do the following:
        if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(text))
        {
            // Do your stuff here
        }
