How to Protect Animals

根据材料内容，回答下列问题。

Animals are our best friends. They are important to us. They live together with us on the earth. If there are no animals , we will not live, either. So we should take good care of them to help us protect our homes. Then how to protect the animals?

First of all, we should understand the importance of protecting wild animals. As we know, animals are an important source(来源) of food. Every animal has its place in the balance(平衡) of nature. If we destroy(毁坏) a kind of animal, we will have many other problems very soon. For example, when farmers kill a large number of hawks(鹰), the mice will destroy farmers’ stores of rice. Because hawks eat mice. Without hawks, the number of mice is becoming more and more.

Then, let people know how to protect animals. First, ask people to stop killing wild animals and keep the balance of nature. Second, we should protect animals’ habitat. If we see other people destroy animal homes, we should stop this behavior(行为).

Protecting wild animals is the duty(责任) of each of us. Let us protect animals together!
