Animals are important to us and they are our friends. But some of them are in great danger now. What can we do to help save them?
Don't eat wild animals' meat. Some of us like to eat meat. But do you know some meat comes from endangered (濒危的) animals? To save animals, don't eat their meat. And it's healthy for us, too.
Don't wear clothes made of fur (毛皮). Sometimes people kill animals for fur. If we don't buy clothes made of fur, people will not kill animals.
Please give away money to Animal Helpers. The group does everything to help save animals. But it often needs money. So save some money and give it away to the group to help animals.
Tell people that it's important to save animals. Not all people know animals are our friends and that we must save them. So why not tell people around us that it's important to save animals?
Do you have any other good ways to help save animals? Write to tell us.

Hello. We are students from Thailand, and we want to save the elephants. The elephant is one of Thailand's symbols. Our first flag had a white elephant on it. This is a symbol of good luck.
Elephants are smart animals. They can play soccer or music. They can also draw very well. People say that "an elephant never forgets". Elephants can walk for a long time and never get lost. They can also remember places with food and water. This helps them to live.
But elephants are in great danger. People cut down many trees so elephants are losing their homes. People also kill elephants for their ivory. Today there are only about 3000 elephants (over 100, 000 before). We must save the trees and not buy things made of ivory. Remember that March 13th is Thai Elephant Day.

How do you get to school? Do you go by bus or by train? For many students, it is easy to get to school. But for the students in one small village in China, it is difficult. There is a very big river between their school and the village. There is no bridge and the river runs too quickly for boats. So these students go on a ropeway to cross the river to school.
One 11-year-boy, Liangliang, crosses the river every school day. But he is not afraid because he loves school. "I love to play with my classmates. And I love my teacher. He is like a father to me. "
Many of the students and villagers never leave the village. It is their dream to have a bridge. Can their dream come true?
