 1 How can I make our world a better place?
I strongly believe that by
Saving animals from extinction, the world will be much better place!
Who are the invaders!! Us or the animals? well here is some time to think, Well ok time is up !
The answer is us! Yes us humans.


2 Why should we care
Well the answer is yes, we should care for the animals.
To be specific we should care for our magnificent creatures and wildlife, because they are beautiful and fascinating.  Every animal has a different creature power and I believe there is a lot we can learn from these animals Eg: like the basilisk lizard, who can run on water.
 3 Endangered animals
Animals are endangered & soon to be extinct! Without animals we will be extinct TOO! Because they give us milk ,meat, eggs & honey . They also provide us with not just food but with animal manure, leathers, & feathers.
A list of endangered animals. 
*pangolin                                                                                   
* Leatherback sea turtle
* Tiger
*White rhinoceros
* Chinese giant salamander
*Kiwi
* Fur seal
* Cheetah.
 4 Plastic
This is a formidable material, that takes years to break down & once its released into the wild 
It becomes a health threat to the animals, as they think it food  & eat it! 
Which is killing our beautiful animal.
Conclusion
I strongly believe if we as humans, work together to save animals From Extinction
‘THE WORLD WOULD BE
A BETTER PLACE!
In order for this to happen, we need to make better choices when it come to choosing  plastic made products or similar materials.
Also need to stop logging native forests!
