I would like to join the Animal Protection Society. First,let me introduce myself. I am a Grade 8 student at Huaiwen Middle School. Now, some people don’t understand the importance of protecting animals. They cut plenty of trees for farms and buildings. This lead to less and less space for animals. Hunters kill them just for their fur and fun.
I think it is important for people to protect animals,because animals are our friends. We should do something to protect the environment. So we can provide a good place for animals to live. We should not buy clothes that are made of fur. Moreover, our government should made laws to prevent people from killing animals.
I can take part in activities at weekends. I will be happy if I can be a member of Animal Protection Society. You can email me at 8360922@.
Yours sincerely,
Zhang Bing
