Afterall, without the domestic animal, which has worked both for
and with us, we would not be where we are today. Pets like cats and
dogs have been shown to be incredible stress relievers for their loving
owners.
Unfortunately, the wild animals of the world are in great danger... because of us. We hunt them for trophies, we burn their homes for agriculture and we cut down their shelters for wood. Without these animals the Earth cannot survive, they are a very important part of the ecology. More importantly, in losing them, we lose the most magnificant beauties and wonders of the natural world. No animal deserves to be unnaturaly and permanently wiped from existance by another species. Afterall, we are no more than animals ourselves and we would fight that fate until the bitter end. They, too, deserve a fighting chance.
From this page there are links to different parts of the world. Each
has a few facts and pictures on some of the wildlife of that area.
The lists are by no means complete, but rather they are a taste of
the wildlife surrounding us. Most are ones that I feel are most
beautiful and/or intriging. Just click on the map and enjoy!
The rest of the page is kind of an "about the author" type of idea. If you want to know more about me here is where you have to look.
I got 10 out of 10 stars!
Thanks for checking my site out!
