How We Can Help

We can all help save endangered animals. Here are some of the things we can do:

Dugongs:

  • don't pollute water
  • don't drop litter (much of it ends up in our waterways)
  • don't eat what they eat
  • try not to leak oil from ships
 Dugong
  • steer pleasure boats clear of seagrass (dugongs are probably eating there)
  • don't destroy their habitat
  • don't destroy their breeding grounds
  • create a few protection grounds where no kind of boat is allowed to go (as to stop the dugong from being injured)
  • don't drop any kind of net in the water
  • fine people if they kill a dugong on purpose (if they know who killed it)
Tasmanian Devil

Tasmanian Devil:

  • keep environment clean (don't litter)
  • protect habitat(also protect breeding grounds)
  • protect food source(don't waste food source)
  • create some protected areas where no humans are allowed

All Endangered Animals

Through our research on dugongs and Tasmanian Devils we have realised that there are some things we can all do to help all endangered animals:

  • keep our environment pollution free (don't litter, keep our waterways clean, walk and use public transport as much as possible)
 bilby
  • don't destroy habitats and over use or waste habitat resources(don't cut down too many trees for wood and paper)
  • use a balanced amount of food and resources that animals also need
