Hi Emerson! Thank you for sharing. I know. It can be so hard seeing things that seem wrong to us and which are upsetting. It makes me feel a bit better though knowing there are people like you around who care and want to make change.
Does the place have a website? Sometimes there is an email address or a ‘Contact Us’ section on the website. I bet…[Read more]-
Thanks so much! I’ll do that.

My favorite animal is the giraffe and currently I’m brainstorming a project to protect biodiversity in my community.
Hi Maria! Happy World Giraffe Day! (I believe it was a couple of days ago). I love that you want to protect biodiversity! It’s incredible how many species can live in one area, but so often these species are wiped out by lack of native plants or invasive species.
What kind of animals do you have in your community?
