Don't Feed the Animals
by Marvin Reinhart D
Have you ever seen a chipmunk begging for food from a person? Many people might want to give the chipmunk a piece of their snack. But please don’t! If we want to have healthy wild animals, then we can’t give animals people food.
People food can make wild animals sick. It also teaches them to need people to live. Instead of finding their own food, the animals learn to beg. When people aren’t around, the animals don’t know what to do. They forget how to live off the land around them.
Our Animal Friends
by Jerry Lemto
We need to take care of our animals. One way to keep animals safe is not to feed them. Feeding them makes them come back for more. It keeps them from finding their own food.
Another way to keep our animals safe is to be careful when driving. Many animals are killed each year by people driving too fast.
