Animal Conservation is definitely something you have to lead by example.

First, and foremost, you must take great care of animals in your own care. Your animals should be treated with the same love and respect you would give any child, or wish to be treated yourself. Loved, nurtured, fed, etc. you must do it all.

My wife and I, have what we lovingly refer to as our own home zoo. We have two Jack Russell Terrier dogs, a Siamese male cat, three ferrets, 12 geckos, a 55 gallon & a 10 gallon tropical fish tank. We do our very best to take great care off all of the creatures we have been entrusted in. Afterall, if we cannot take care of our own animals, who is going to take us seriously about helping save others.

Then, leading by example, you can help with other endangered animals. Endangered animals do not have to be a continent away. There are animals in your own neighborhoods that desperately need your help.

As Steve so honestly put it, We are all ultimately responsible for the safety and welfare of all of God's creatures. We make "life & death" decisions daily, that effect animals. Let's pray we make the RIGHT ones, from now on.

Your right. Animals should be treated with as much respect as you would give to a child. Why is it that other people think that this isn't so? why do others feel that we should treat animals like dirt? Is it because the dont speak english? or is it that they live in the wild? thats is rediculous. there is no reason to do so.. at all, because it would be wrong to treat humans like animals... right? but anyway, we need to stop harming the habbitat of all these animals before another species becomes extinct. Allegedly, that is what everyone wants to prevent, but yet there are people who still burn forests down during the "burning season" in the tropics. Are we to ignore the other side of the world? So many questions so little answeres.... its quite horrible. Anyway, help animals and nature, they go hand and hand. Thank you for reading, and have a nice day....
