Animals ARE rather important.Here are some actions we can do to protect animals.
1.Don't litter.This is the single most easy way to help the environment.Littering increases damage of habitats,and is a possible choking hazard,especially to animals foraging for food.
2 If you see other people mindlessly trample animal homes,nicely remind them of the damage they're causing.Do the same if you see people chasing birds,throwing rocks at animals,nests,anything that is harmful,or could be harmful in the future.Old bird nests can be homes for birds that return year after year to the same place.Try not to get too frustrated if they just don't "get" it.
3 Cut up those plastic eight pack rings you get from soda cans before you throw them away.They are very real choking items for seabirds that get their head stuck in them while foraging for food.
4 Go green,and turn off the lights when you leave the room,turn off the water when you don't need it,walk instead of drive,and get cloth bags instead of the plastic bags at the grocery stores.These will help animals in the long run.It will also help the environment.
5 Spread the word!The more people helping animals,the better the chance of saving them!One person can make a difference,but many will make a much more benefiting change to animals.
6 Donate to the Animal Welfare Society.
7 Write a letter to the government and try to convince them that whatever you want them to do will work.
