Let's Protect the Endangered Animals
Animals are human's friends. Protecting endangered animals is quite important.
As we all know, in recent years, the number of some wild animals is getting less and less. Some of them are even dying down. The main reason is that people cut down so many trees that they make the animals lose their homes.
Firstly, the most important thing is that we should realize the importance of saving endangered animals. Secondly, we should stop people from cutting down trees and we should plant more trees, so there will be more forests for them to live in. What's more, call on more people not to shoot them because they are our friends.
If everyone does something to protect endangered animals, it will be better and better in the future.
