      Animals are our friends. But now more and more animals,such as tigers,pandas and elephants are in danger. All of us should do something to protect them. It's the time. Then what can we do for animals in danger?

      One of the most important ways is to protect their habitats. When visiting a natural park,you should make sure you follow the rules. Leave the flowers,birds and eggs where you find them. You can even grow a tree or build a birdhouse in your garden.

      We should also protect the environment. You’d better take a bus,ride bicycles or walk but not drive cars. Turn off lights,radios and televisions when you are not using them. Take your own bag to the supermarket when you go shopping.

      Another important thing to protect animals is to think about what you use and eat. Don’t buy things which are made of animal fur or ivory. Eat more vegetables and fruit but less meat.
