Activity 4 Think and share A sample presentation
Nowadays, we notice that wildlife in our neighbourhood is being endangered. Animals such as birds, snakes, boars(野猪) are being hunted and killed for food. What’s worse, more trees are being cut down and more land is being exploited for urbanization. Thus, the habitats for wildlife are being seriously threatened. However, some regulations are being carried out and many homes are being restored for the wildlife. Personally I do believe that there is hope for wildlife and we should raise our awareness of animals protection and be volunteers to join activities to make a difference.
