Developing Awareness of Endangered Animals



The last few days we have been spending a great amount of time talking about
endangered animals. Some of the animals we have learned facts about are
listed as follows: zebra, rhinoceros, mountain gorilla, tiger, and the
humpback whale. Many of these animals have had their habitat destroyed due
to farming, logging, and pollution. As a class, we have discussed the
importance of preserving the remains of these natural habitats to ensure
that these species survive. One of our favorite facts about the rhinoceros
is that a rhino's horn continues to grow throughout its lifetime. We
decided to create a "Save the Rhinos" poster to hang in our school hallway.
Please join our efforts in understanding the importance of saving our
endangered species! We can all make a difference.
