While Mica and Aida were walking along the school pathway, they noticed a poster. It showed pictures of various animals. Mica read the poster. “Care for the animals. Protect their homes”.
Animals have their own home, too. Like us, they also need a place where they can stay.Different animals live in different places. The place where an animal lives is called habitat. Animals live in habitats where they can get all their basic needs. Some animals live on land. Dogs, cats, horses, goats, and chickens are examples of animals that live on land.
Some animals live above the ground. Birds build their nests on trees. Bees usually hang their hives on tree branches. Many animals live in the water. Fish live in rivers, lakes, or oceans. Some fish live near the water surface. Others live on the ocean floor. Big animals like dolphins and whales also live in water. They live in big bodies of water like the ocean. Some animals live both on the land and in water. They include frogs and turtles.
Did you know that many animals lose their habitats because people destroy them? Some people cut the trees where birds live. Others throw garbage in the sea where many fish live. Garbage makes the water dirty.
Around the world, many forests where animals live are being destroyed. Laws have been made to protect forests worldwide. These laws forbid people from doing activities that destroy animal homes. An example of thee activities is illegal logging.
You can start helping the animals by throwing your garbage in proper places. You should not step on plants where small animals live. Like us, animals also need a safe and clean place where they can live and grow.
