Things You Can Do
No matter what your age and no matter where you live, you can help wildlife. You will accomplish the most if you work together with other people — at a business or job, at school, at home with your family, or in your community with friends. Whatever your age, never underestimate the power of personal example. Both children and adults who show by their actions that they care about wildlife and habitat can have an important influence on other people.
