Blue whales can live up to 90 years. When a blue whale dies at sea, it becomes food for many kinds of animals living in and around the sea.

Whales are very large animals.They live in the sea and they eat a lot of small fish and other sea animals.They can jump high out of the water.
However, whales are endangered now. Humans catch whales for their meat, fat and oil. Other problems such as ocean pollution and terrible weather also cause the number of whales to go down.
To protect them, the government should make strict rules to stop people killing them and polluting the sea. Saving endangered animals means saving our planet. Everyone should play a part in protecting whales and other endangered wild animals.Let’s act now—every small step counts!

Giant pandas are lovely black and white animals. They are one of the most beloved endangered animals. They live in the bamboo forests of China and eat bamboo as their main food.
However, pandas are endangered. The main reason is that their forest home is getting smaller. When people cut down forests, pandas lose their place to live and find food. Also, bamboo can become scarce, which makes their survival harder.Third,their birth rate is low.
To protect pandas, we need to protect their homes. First, the government has built many nature reserves where pandas can live safely. Second, we should also plant more trees and support these protection projects. Third, everyone can help by learning about pandas and telling others why they are important.
Let's work together to protect these lovely animals! They are a precious treasure not only for China but also for the whole world.

Polar bears are very large animals. They live in the Arctic and they eat seals and fish. They can swim well in the cold ocean.
However, polar bears are endangered now. Humans hunt them for their fur and meat. Other problems such as environmental pollution and global warming also cause them to lose their homes.
To protect them, the government should make rules to stop people from killing them and polluting. Everyone should play a part in living a low-carbon life to fight climate change.
Let's take action now to protect these amazing animals and our planet!

Polar bears are large white animals. They live in the very cold Arctic. Their home is made of ice, and they eat seals. They are good at swimming.
But now, polar bears are in danger. The biggest problem is that the Earth is getting warmer. This makes the ice melt, so polar bears lose their homes and find it hard to get food. Also, water pollution makes them sick.
To help them, the government should make strong rules to keep the air and water clean. We can also help by saving electricity and using less plastic. Everyone should do their part.
Let's work together to protect polar bears and all other endangered animals. A small action from you can make a big difference for them!
