Protecting animals is important to us.
We look after animals and nature.
This makes the world healthy.
Animals can feel happy, just like people.
Animals can also feel hurt.
Animals can feel afraid.

We know that animals are important for nature.
They also help people.
We need animals to live.

But many animals are in danger.
More and more animals are disappearing forever.
There are not as many wild animals any more.

Animals in the sea are also in danger.
We need to protect them.
We can stop them disappearing forever.

When we protect animals,
we also protect people.
Animals are part of nature.
Animals are part of our world.
We need them to live.

We are working on new projects.
We will show you these projects soon.
We will show you what we are doing for animals.

„The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.”
