How to help endangered animals from extinction :

1. Visit a national park, wildlife refuge, or protected area. These areas


provide habitat for hundreds of threatened species!
2. Reduce, reuse, recycle! Recycling and reducing your waste helps our
planet and all those who live on it.
3. Don’t purchase items like ivory, real tortoise shell, coral, etc. The sale
of these items lead to serious population problems for endangered
species.
4. Spread the word! Use your voice to speak up for the animals who can’t
speak for themselves. Zoo and wildlife organizations depend on YOU to
help spread their message for the animals who can’t talk. Easy
examples of spreading the word include: sharing social posts, sharing
links to articles, and signing petitions.
5. Donate to organizations created to help our zoo animals and wildlife
(like us!) Link to donate here.
6. Grow native plants! Native plants are food for many local species.
Challenge yourself to landscape with native plants, and your local
animals friends will thank you!
7. Support local accredited zoos and aquariums! Zoos and aquariums help
to protect species by educating others. Also, lots of zoos have breeding
programs that help boost endangered population species. For a list of
accredited zoos, visit this website.
