Plant a tree and the Wildworld will say thankyou
Lots of animals need trees, so planting native trees, and helping them to grow big and strong, is one of the best ways you can Help the Wildworld. Other plants provide food and shelter to animals too, so it doesn’t have to be a tree. You could also plant a shrub, herb, sedge or waterplant, and the Wildworld will be grateful!

Sea creatures love reusable bottles
Sea creatures really don’t like the plastic waste that ends up in their home. You can help by saying ‘no’ to bottled water, and drinking tap water from a reusable bottle instead.

Keep your cat indoors
I love cats. But I love birds too. Unfortunately, many pet cats like to kill birds. Cat bells don’t always work. The solution? Keep your cat indoors, and construct an outdoor play pen that they can’t escape from. This will also protect your cat from neighborhood bullies and from being squashed by cars.
And the Wildworld will thank you for it!
