保护动物英语短篇作文（推荐20篇）

Children， you grabbed the small tadpoles right， you must know that tadpole grew up to become small frog， the frog can eat insects， so the frog is our humans good friends。 We should protect it， not hurt it。 But some hotels are also sold the frog meat？ Once， dad and his friends took me to dinner。 A waiter said： "you see， this is we store the launch of new specials， stir flogs ball"。 "Chicken is what ah？" I curiously ask， "chicken is the frog。" The waiter said， with a smile。 I was very angry， because they hurt our good friends—frog！ Another thing， he makes a big inspiration。 One day， when I finish school， saw a man at the school gate at little chicks must sell， and I will have mercy on them。 Because the little chicks must first came to this world， away from the mother， away from the mother love and mother warm embrace， and this is what they faced starved to death， the risk of freezing to death。 At that time I thought： we humans are so happy！ When you see here， did you see to protect our human friends—animals！

很多人都说过，“保护动物，人人有责”。我一直很喜欢小动物，每当看到小动物从我旁边经过时，我总会停下来看看他们，喂它们吃东西。望着它们可爱的样子，我的嘴角总会上扬一个大大的弧度。

记得是在几年前的暑假，我和同学正高兴的玩乐着，忽然一阵微弱的声音从离我们不远的灌木丛中传来，我上前一看，原来是一只小猫。那只小猫毛发凌乱，毛色乌黑，骨瘦如柴，尾巴无力的摇动着，只剩下一双带着疲惫的琥珀色眼睛看着我。我见状，立刻拿出了小零食喂给它吃，小猫咪晃了晃尾巴，闻了闻食物，冲我叫了一声，仿佛是感谢似的，低头吃起了食物。从此，我每天都来看它，给它吃好吃的食物。时间渐渐的流逝，一周过去了，两周过去了。

一天，我正准备去看望小猫，可天公不作美，下起了大雨。因为天气恶劣，我只能留在家中，静静的等待第二天的到来。盼望着，盼望着，第二天终于来了，太阳也终于挂上了天空。我兴高采烈的跑去找小猫，谁知到了灌木丛，却什么也没有看到。这时候，一位住在附近的叔叔告诉我，那只小猫被电动车撞死了。得知这个消息，我如同浑身上下都被浇了冷水般，不停的颤抖着。我只是想看看小猫，却等来了它的死亡。

那一天晚上，我的脑海中不停的浮现着小猫咪的身影，耳边盘旋着小猫咪的叫声，我做了一个梦，梦见那个撞死小猫的人神情漠然，对躺在地上流着鲜血的小猫不管不顾，不是想办法救助，而是悄悄离开。想到这儿，我不禁想起了最近电视上经常报道的鱼翅，想到那些鲨鱼被割掉鱼鳍静静的沉入海底;我想起了马戏团的动物们，想到它们被逼迫表演逗乐观众;我想起了猎人们不停的不杀珍稀动物，想到是本来就濒临灭绝的动物们走向消失的道路……如果你是动物，遭受到这样残忍的对待，你又会怎么想呢?

保护动物，人人有责。只要人人都出一份力，“保护动物”的愿望就一定可以实现!

有一次，我看见在学校门口有一群人围在那，我就好奇的走过去看看，我看见有一位阿姨在那里卖小蝌蚪，那些小蝌蚪非常的活泼可爱，它那小小的身体就像一个个逗号，在盆子里游来游去，它们还不知道它们即将变成小朋友的玩具，它们可能即将死于非命，因为这种贩卖小蝌蚪的行为，让我看了十分心痛。因为小蝌蚪长大了会变成青蛙，青蛙可是庄家的“守护神".

青蛙是动物世界里最出色的“小小捕虫专家”，就连农民伯伯也亲密的称它为“农田卫士”.青蛙眼睛锐利，舌头吞吐迅速，专门捕捉苍蝇.蚊子.飞蛾等害虫，一只青蛙一天捕食害虫少说也有五六十只，多则两百多只，照这样推算一只青蛙一年至少要吃掉一万八千只害虫.你想如果你杀死一只青蛙就等于杀死一个庄家“小卫士”，也等于让几万只害虫逃之夭夭，从而使庄家招到更多的危害，捕捉青蛙会让青蛙的数量减少甚至绝种，失去这些好朋友是多么可惜啊！如果青蛙绝种了那么谁来保护庄家保护良田呢，有句农谚说的好：“春捕一只蛙，秋少一担粮”！可见青蛙和庄家息息相关！

不但青蛙是益虫，就连它们的宝宝蝌蚪也是捕虫能手，一只蝌蚪每天可以吃掉一百多只蚊子，如果每亩田多有四百多只青蛙农民就可以不用喷洒农药了，我们也就能够吃到无公害的绿色食品了！这样不仅庄稼获得了丰收，生活用水也可以少受到污染了，大家也不用担心因为水的污染身体收到伤害了.这是多么美好的一件事啊！

世界不能没有动植物，保护动植物就等于人类，让我们携起手来保护动植物保护青蛙吧！

我也是一知青挖家族的一员，我从小就痛恨人们，整天跟着妈妈东躲西藏，一天我来到青蛙学校，写保护青蛙的作文。校长说：“今天我们不是学习怎么样捉害虫，而是学习怎么逃避人类的毒手……”校长的话还没有说完，一只大手就把我和他抓住了。我嚎啕大哭起来。坏人把我和校长放在一个麻袋里面，那里还有许多我的同类，他们都在悲伤地哭泣。

坏人把我们背到街上去卖，公安民警看见了，把他抓了起来，我也不知道把那人怎么处理了，我就听到有人在宣布一句话：“我国法律规定，不允许乱捉青蛙，违规者罚款三千元，”又对他进行了一番思想教育……

我们被放回了池塘，在民警的保护下，我们的日子算好过多了。我们一边捕捉着害虫，一边还是小心翼翼地学习保护自己的绝招……

Water is the source of life. Human can not do without water, animals, plants cannot survive without water. We every day to drink water, water, not only we need water, the fish in the water, the crops of the fields, the trees on the hill, and so on all need water. Some people may think so: water is to burn forever, love how how waste waste, this idea is wrong, we should change the idea.

I listen to mama said, in our city the creek, at the time of their small river on the bottom, they often catch fish in the river, catch shrimp, game play, but now is full of rubbish, into a dry river.

Water had a close relationship with each one of us, if there is no water, crops cant grow, we have no food to eat and vegetables, we wash hands, wash dishes, laundry every day... A moment also can not do without water. We cant live without water. Since the water effect, we should save water, form the good habit of saving water, do people go to close the tap, dont throw the rubbish into the river... Keep water clean.

For all of us have a good living environment, let us together hand in hand together, starts from me, start from now, sets up the idea of saving water, protecting water, take good care of water is to take care of ourselves.

In order to our better future, we all work together!

水是生命的源泉。人类离不开水，动物、植物也离不开水。我们每天要喝水、用水，不光我们需要水，水里的鱼儿、田里的庄稼、山上的树木等等都需要水。有的人可能这么想：水是永远用不完，爱怎么浪费就怎么浪费，这种想法是不对的，我们应该改变这种想法。

我听妈妈说，在我们城里的这条小河，在她们小的时候河里清澈见底，她们经常在河水里捉鱼、捉虾、游戏玩耍，可是到了现在却到处是垃圾，成了一条干枯的小河。

水与我们每一个人都关系密切，如果没有水，农作物就无法生长，我们就没有吃的粮食和蔬菜了，我们每天洗手、洗菜、洗衣…一刻也离不开水。如果没有水，我们就不能生存。既然水的作用那么大，我们就应该节约用水，从小养成节约用水的好习惯，做到人走关好水龙头、不把垃圾扔到河里…使水能够保持干净。

为了我们大家有一个良好的生活环境，让我们一起携手起来，从我做起，从现在做起，树立起节水、护水的观念，爱护水就是爱护我们自己。

为了我们美好的未来，我们大家一起努力吧!

The horses are strong, not like the tame cats or puppy dogs.

They look wild and hard to get close. Yet, they will be very timid and friendly after they get to know you. Horses remember the way home. They are also faithful to their masters.

They even understand what you are trying to tell them. Ive heard many stories about how a horse saved his masters life.

Thats also the reason why I love horses. They never betray you.

[我喜欢的动物的英语作文

Green, the color of life; The color of green, environmental protection; With green have the fresh air; With green have the ooze of flowers; Green and healthy life.

Low carbon, environmental protection is refers to life work and rest of the energy consumption to reduce as far as possible, so as to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide. In our ordinary people low carbon is a kind of attitude, we should pay attention to the saving, fuel-efficient, solar terms, from the start bit by bit.

Over the years, with the deepening of industrialization, a large amount of carbon dioxide discharge, make the global temperature rise, climate change, it is indisputable fact. The world meteorological organization reported: nearly 10 years of 10 years is global warmest on record. In addition, global warming also makes the Antarctic ice began to melt, causing sea levels to rise, the use area of narrow, humans cannot survive, massive death of animals and plants.

Each piece of articles for daily use, big to small home appliances to toys, books and decoration, each items of the production cost of resources and energy, will bring carbon emissions, perhaps you abandoned things may be needed by others, no longer buy new articles for daily use, will naturally reduce the resources and energy, reducing carbon emissions.

The classmates, in order to "green" of the world, let us act, to cherish green, take good care of green, to create green give an own strength.

绿，生命的颜色;绿，环保的颜色;有了绿色便有了清新的空气;有了绿色便有了沁鼻的花香;有了绿色便有了健康的生命。

低碳环保就是指生活，作息的所耗用能量尽量减少，从而使二氧化碳的排放量减少。于我们普通人来说低碳是一种态度，我们应该时候注意节约、节油、节气，从一点一滴做起。

多年来，随着工业化的深入，大量二氧化碳的排出，使全球气温升高，气候发生变化，这已是不争的事实。世界气象组织曾公布：近10年是记录以来全球最热的10年。此外全球变暖也使得南极冰川开始融化，进而导致海平面升高，使用面积缩小，人类无法生存，动植物大量死亡。

每一件生活用品，大至家电小到玩具，书籍和摆设，每一件物品的生产都要耗费资源和能量，都会带来碳排放，或许你废弃的东西也许正要其他人所需要的，不再购买新的生活用品，自然会降低资源和能源，减少碳的排放量。

同学们，为了世界的“绿色”，让我们行动起来，为珍惜绿色，爱护绿色，创造绿色献出自己的一份力量。

弗朗西斯为人类与动物建立正常文明的关系做出了榜样。后人为了纪念他，就把10月4日定为“世界动物日”，小编收集了保护动物的励志名言，欢迎阅读。

今天，我们读了很多关于保护环境的小短文。我想起曾经在我身边发生的事情。

记得是去年的暑假，我和爸爸一起去鹅湖边散步，走了一段路，我就一个劲的喊口渴，于是，爸爸就在路边的小店给我买了根冰棍。我边吃边走，一会儿就吃完了，随手把冰棍棒往鹅湖里一扔。爸爸看见了，马上提醒我说;“可可，不能乱扔垃圾噢!如果每个人都像你一样往湖里扔垃圾，这美丽的鹅湖不就变成了垃圾湖了。”我羞愧的说：“知道了，我下次一定不乱扔垃圾。”爸爸微笑着抚摸我的头说：“地球也是我们的家，我们应该保护它，爱护它，让天更蓝，水更清，草更绿。”我调皮的说：“噢，那就是大家一直说的，城市是我家，环境清洁靠大家。我明白了。”让从那以后，我再也不乱扔垃圾了。

我想爱护环境与每个人息息相关，所以要从每个人做起!

Grilled chicken. The roast duck. All kinds of meat, already is normal on table a "routine". Television also reported many save a national protected animal, encourages people from all over the world to protect animals. But, why do some people will do whatever it takes to save animals, and some will be on the table for people to enjoy? Not advocate protect animals?

The answer is very simple, because people at all costs to save animals is called "the state-level protection", and was called "poultry" on the table. Why is that? They are also lively individual life; There are also mom and dad love; a lovely kid The same is collectively known as animals. However, why? To protect rare animals, but more to eat. Side in the title of "animal protection", there are big mouth to bite a serve fish or fowl. Why the national birth will be protected, live more comfortable than some vulnerable groups, and poultry was born is raised, waiting for them is cruel, and then made into a variety of delicious, is on the table, is to eat their meat.

Their life is life, watching, please protect your side weak life, thank you!

烤鸡;烤鸭;各种各样的野味，早就是餐桌上见怪不怪的一道“家常便饭”了。电视上也报道过不少拯救国家级保护动物的节目，提倡世界各地的人们要保护动物。可是，为什么有的动物人们会不惜一切代价去挽救，而一些就要被摆在餐桌上供人们享用呢?不是提倡保护动物吗?

答案很简单，因为人们不惜一切代价拯救的动物叫“国家级保护”，而被摆在餐桌上的叫“家禽”。为什么?它们同样是活泼可爱的生命个体;同样是有爸爸妈妈疼爱的乖小孩;同样是被人们统称为动物。可是为什么?稀少的动物要保护，而多的却要吃掉。这边打着“保护动物”的头衔，那边却大口大口地咬着鸡鸭鱼肉。为什么那些国家级一出生就要被保护起来，过着比某些弱势群体还要舒服，而家禽一出生就是养大，等待它们的就是残忍的虐杀，然后做成各式各样的美味，被摆在餐桌上，就是为了吃它们的肉。

难道它们的生命不是生命吗?为什么要这样对待它们呢?如果有一天，换我们自己要被它们杀掉，然后做成各式各样的美味，供它们享用，我们自己的感受会是怎样的呢?

虽然我不是什么大作家，不能用很美的句子打动你们的心，但我想说的永远只有一个：同样是生命就应该受到尊重，我们没有权利决定别人的生死，饲养它们，充其量就是一个爱心的行为举动。

它们的生命也是生命，看完，请您保护您身边弱小的生命，谢谢!

下渚湖风景区有一种奇特的鸟，叫朱鹮。姨父说，这是一种珍惜的鸟类，是国家一级保护动物，和大熊猫一样珍贵呢。它是日本的国鸟，可是在日本却已经灭绝了，只有少量生活在我国，听了姨父的介绍，我真想马上就见识一下这种神奇的鸟。

开到百鸟岛，首先出现的是几个朱鹮的雕塑，它们有的展翅飞翔，有的在捕食，有的几只站在一起好像在窃窃私语。我们在这里拍了几张纪念照，飞快地往前走去。突然峰回路转，三只巨大的鸟笼就呈现在我们眼前。每个鸟笼像我们的房子一样大，里面各架着一根长长的竹竿，许多白色的大鸟一字儿排列在竹竿上，看见我们就呱呱大叫，妈妈说它们在欢迎我们呢。我仔细观察了这些大鸟，它们的个头和白鹤差不多，毛也是白色的，不过羽毛尖上一点淡淡的粉红。朱鹮的脸是朱红色的，嘴巴长长尖尖向下弯曲，我想这大概是它名字的由来吧。我最奇怪的是，朱鹮们排列在竹竿上，每两只之间的距离都是差不多半米左右，是不是接受过特殊训练呢?

在导游的介绍上，我们还了解了朱鹮的历史。它不仅是中国的吉祥之鸟，同时还是日本的国鸟。可是因为环境的恶化，日本的朱鹮已经灭绝了，我们的国家领导人到日本访问，就带了几只朱鹮作为礼物送给日本。现在它们的孩子已经回来繁殖了，真想不到小小的鸟儿还是两国友谊的使者呢。

通过这次游览，我不仅认识了国家一级保护动物——朱鹮，还深刻的理解了环境保护的重要性。我希望我们的生存的环境越来越好，朱鹮们可以自由翱翔在蓝天白云之中，不需要大笼子的保护了。

a country maid was walking along with a can of milk upon her head,when she fell into the following train of reflections."the money for which i shall sell this milk will enable me to increase my stock of eggs to three hundred,these eggs,allowing for what may prove addle,and what may be destroyed by vermin,will produce at least two hundred and fifty chickens.the chickens will be fit to carry to market just at the time when poultry is always dear;so that by the new year i cannot fail of having money enough to purchase a new gown.green-let me consider-yes,green becomes my complexion best .and green it shall be, in this dress i will go to the fair,where all young fellows will strive to have me for a parter;but no-i shall refuse every one of them,and with a disdainful toss turn from them."

transported with this idea,she could not forbear acting with her head the thought that passed in her mind,when down came the can of milk!and all her imaginary happiness vanished in a moment.

我喜欢看电视，我最喜欢看的就是动物世界了，本来看到那些野生动物应该是件开心的事情，但是这一次的节目却让我感觉这么沉重，这么难过。

这一个节目主要讲的是两种海洋动物的遭遇。

第一种是鲸鱼：大多数人都会认为鲸鱼的鱼翅是既有营养又有好味道。在看电视之前，我也是这样认为的，但看了这档节目之后我就不这么认为了。因为我听这档节目的嘉宾说：一整条鲸鱼上的鱼翅的营养总价值竟与一枚鸡蛋的营养价值相当。而鱼翅本身是没有味道的，只是人工添加佐料而调成的味道，也就是说，如果没有鱼翅，也可以调出鱼翅的味道。可是一些富豪因为显摆自己尊贵的身份而吃鱼翅。

可以总结出：某些人为了吃一碗简单又没有价值的鱼翅，而不惜杀死一整条鲸鱼。

另一个更让我悲伤，因为受捕的对象竟然是海豚。在每个相同的季节，大量的海豚都会从一个日本的海滩经过。所以当地的渔民经常从海里驱赶它们到这个海滩上，当它们一来到这个海滩上，马上遭到围捕。绝大多数的海豚会就地屠杀，只有极少数的海豚被选中作为观赏动物送到海洋馆。每次捕杀完毕，海滩上就会一片血红……

当我看到这一幕时，眼泪不由自主流了下来。当我正为这些海豚感到难过时，屏幕上的渔民却个个面带笑容地把这些被屠杀的海豚拉到交易市场。然而更让我们震惊的是，这些海豚肉竟比牛肉卖的还便宜。

在很多记载中，有不少海豚主动救人的例子。可是这些日本渔民因利益和金钱的诱惑蒙敝了双眼，去残忍地杀害对人类有贡献的海豚。

面对这些事实。让我不禁深思；这些动物没有对人类和大自然的生态环境造成不利影响，反而有利于生态发展。可是我们人类对它们做出了什么？对它们进行保护？我们没有尽到应有的职责。让它们有一个良好的生存环境？我们也没有做到什么。只有让它们原本美好的家园受到严重的污染。并且围捕、屠杀和伤害它们……

愚蠢的人类，请停下你们的屠杀吧，不要再伤害我们的朋友们了。不要让我们的朋友对我们的美好记忆变成噩梦，不要再伤害它们了！

nimals are natural resources that people have wasted all through our history. Animals have been killed for their fur and feathers, for food, for sport, and simply because they were in the way. Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared from the earth forever. Hundreds more are on the danger list today. About 170 kinds in the United States alone are considered in danger.

Why should people care? Because we need animals, and because once they are gone, there will never be any more. Animals are more than just beautiful or interesting. They are more than just a source of food. Every animal has its place in the balance of nature. Destroying one kind of animal can create many problems. For example, when farmers killed large numbers of hawks, the farmers stores of corn and grain were destroyed by rats and mice. Why? Because hawks eat rats and mice, with no hawks to keep down their numbers, the rats and mice multiplied quickly.

Luckily, some people are working to help save the animals. Some groups raise money to let people know about the problem. And they try to get the governments to pass laws protecting animals in danger. Quite a few countries have passed laws. These laws forbid the killing of any animal or planton the danger list. Slowly, the number of some animals in danger is growing.

动物是自然资源，在整个历史过程中，人类一直在糟蹋着这种资源。人们杀死动物，获得它们的皮毛，把它们当作食物或运动方式，或者只是因为它们碍事。成千上万种动物已经从这个地球上永远地消失了。现在另外上百种动物也上了濒危动物名单。仅荚国大概就有170种被认为处于危险当中。

为什么人们应该感到担忧呢?因为我们需要动物，因为它们一旦消失，就永远不会再出现。动物不仅仅是漂亮或有趣。它们不仅仅是人类的食物来源。在维持自然平衡中，每种动物都有其作用。毁灭某种动物会导致许多问题。比如，农民们如果杀死为数众多的鹰，他们谷物和粮食的仓库就会受到老鼠和田鼠的破坏。 为什么?因为鹰吃鼠类，没有鹰控制它们的数量，鼠类就会迅速繁殖。

幸运的是，有些人正在努力帮助拯救这些动物。有些组织筹钱以便人们了解这一问题。他们也努力使政府通过保护濒危动物的法律。很多国家已经通过了法律。这些法

律禁止杀害濒危名单上的动植物。某些濒危动物的数目正在慢慢地不断上升。

When the Arctic Ocean freezes over in the autumn, polar bears set off in search of their favorite meals: fatty ringed seals and bearded seals. By the summer, the sea ice begins to melt and break apart. Deprived of access to the tasty seals, polar bears spend the summer fasting. At least, thats whats supposed to happen. As the planet warms, the warmer ice-free season is getting longer and longer. So whats a hungry bear to do?

Scientists once thought that polar bears might survive by supplementing their pinniped diet by turning to terrestrial foods like snow geese, their eggs and caribou.

"Weve had this debate in the literature about whether terrestrial foods are nutritionally relevant to polar bears during the on-land season when the ice has melted."

University of Alberta biologist Nick Pilfold.

"And weve known for a long time, going back to research in the early 70s, even going to back to early explorer logs, that polar bears will consume terrestrial based foods. But the debate was always whether those foods actually add up, energetically." In other words, do these substitutes provide enough nutrition to make up for the lost seals?

To find out, Pilfold and his colleagues estimated the weight lost each day by polar bears in the wilds of western Hudson Bay during the ice-free season, when they could ostensibly be chowing down on terrestrial foods. Then they compared that to the weight lost by bears that are temporarily held in Manitobas Polar Bear Alert Program.

While captive, the bears do not eat. They drop about one kilogram each day. But the wild bears, who had access to the Arctic snack bar, lost the same amount of weight each day. The results are in the journal Physiological and Biochemical Zoology.

"Which is really saying that the terrestrial foods do not have dense enough energy to offset the mass loss. So this idea that bears can just switch from eating sea ice–based food to land food and thats going to help supplement against longer ice-free seasons, that really doesnt show up in the data."

The problem is that polar bears evolved to rely on the marine diet.

"The food on land is protein and carbohydrate based, and the food the polar bears really focus on is fat. Fat is the name of the game for these bears; theyre highly adapted to absorbing that fat into their system and putting it onto their body as body mass, so they can fast on it later on. And the only thing thats going to provide them with that type of fat are marine mammals. And they can only access those marine mammals when theres sea ice."

Adult males can go eight months without food. But younger, sub-adult bears, which are no longer nursing and must hunt, cant last as long without sea ice. So as the Arctic warms, younger polar bears will disproportionately die out. Leaving the species survival in doubt.

北冰洋在秋季结冰以后，北极熊就会出发去寻求它们最喜欢的食物：富含脂肪的海豹和胡子海豹。海冰在夏季开始融化断裂。这使北极熊在夏季无法吃到美味的海豹，所以它们进入禁食期。至少，情况应该是这样。但是由于地球变暖，温暖的无冰季节越来越长。那饥饿的北极熊要怎么办?

科学家曾经认为，北极熊可能会转向陆地上的食物来补充它们对鳍足类动物饮食的需求，进而生存下去，这些陆地食物包括雪雁、雪雁蛋和北美驯鹿。

“文献中有过这类辩论，即在寒冷融化时陆地食物是否能满足北极熊的营养需求。”

尼克·皮尔福德是加拿大阿尔伯塔大学的生物学家。

“通过上世纪70年代初的研究，还有早期的探险者日志，我们很早以前就知道，北极熊会以陆地食物为食。但是辩论的焦点在于，这些食物是否能增加北极熊的能量。”换句话说，这些替代食物能否为北极熊提供足够的营养，弥补不能进食海豹带来的损失?

为了解开这个疑惑，皮尔福德及同事对西哈德逊湾荒野地区的北极熊在无冰季期间每天失掉的体重进行了估算，从表面上看，北极熊在这段时间食用了陆地食物。随后，他们将这一数据与通过马尼托巴北极熊预警计划暂时捕得的北极熊所失掉的体重进行了对比。

在被关期间，北极熊不吃东西。它们的体重每天大约下降1公斤。虽然野生北极熊能享用北极“小吃”，但是它们的体重每天也同样会下降1公斤。这一研究结果发表在《生理学和生化动物学》期刊上。

“显然结果表明，陆地食物不能为北极熊提供足以抵消大量损失的能量。所以，北极熊可以从食用海冰下面的食物转向食用陆地食物，并帮助它们对抗日益延长的无冰季这个观点，并没有在这项数据中得到证明。”

问题是，北极熊进化成了依靠海洋食物的动物。

“陆地食物以蛋白质和碳水化合物为基础，而北极熊需要的食物以脂肪为主。脂肪是这些熊真正需要的东西;它们高度适应的情况是，将脂肪吸收进它们的系统中，然后把这些脂肪放在身上以增加体重，这样它们之后就可以依靠这些脂肪来度过禁食期。唯一能提供给北极熊这种脂肪的就是海洋哺乳动物。但是它们只能在有海冰时食用到这些海洋哺乳动物。”

成年北极熊可以8个月不进食。但是小一些的未成年北极熊已经不再被哺育，它们必须要去猎食，可是它们不能在漫长的无冰季期间一直不进食。所以，随着北极地区变暖，较小的北极熊将会大批死亡。这使这些物种的生存成为问题。

很多人为了发财，不顾一切的杀死了许多珍稀动物，惨不忍睹。可是他们有想过么？动物也是生命，也有活着的权利，我们凭什么肆无忌惮的杀死它们呢？赚钱？它们会伤害人类？这都不是借口。那哪天要是人肉包子赚钱了，那我们就去杀人？

人们看到动物第一件想到的事情可能是它的皮毛值钱不？肉好吃不？想想吧，跑过来一只狮子，跟你面对面，看着你想：“先扒了他的皮做大衣，喝他的血解渴，吃他的肉饱肚。”简直令人毛骨悚然。动物他还不想这么多，就只吃了它饱肚。人呢？兽皮大衣，血汤，肉丝……

既然都是生命，为何不能和平共处呢？同样都是生在地球，把动物当成老乡，当成邻居，多好啊！我不袭击它，他不杀我，井水不犯河水，己所不欲勿施于人。有好东西分它一点，它有困难帮他一把，互相信任了，说不定它还帮你抓害虫呢。（当然，这是在吃素的条件下才成立的。）这样一辈子下来，不但没有造孽，还积了不少德。

我是吃素的，有人说我亏了，我问为什么，他说：“有那么多美味吃不到，长不出健壮的身体。”可现在呢？我吃的东西比谁都好吃，我比任何人都健康，健壮虽说不是第一，但也不错。吃肉还会弄出那么多名堂，非典啦，禽流感啦。所以说，吃素很健康，还保住了不少动物的性命。

现在越来越多的动物濒临灭绝了，我希望大家珍惜它们，不要因为一己之利或者面子去杀害它们，好吗？

When I was very small, I could see many birds flying in the sky when I looked at the sky, but as I grow up and move to the city, I find less birds in the sky. It is because the environment has been polluted and many birds are dying. We can do small things to protect the environment, so that the animals can live with us.

在我很小的时候，每当我仰望天空的时候，我都可以看到许多鸟在天上飞，但是当我长大后，搬到了城市，我几乎没见过有鸟儿在天空中飞。因为环境被污染了，许多鸟面临死亡。我们要做些小事来保护环境，让动物能和我们共存。

亲爱的同学们：

动物是我们人类的朋友，我们应该保护它们。

动物们需要好的生活环境，但是环境已遭到了严重的破坏。汽车排放的废气使得全球气候变暖，南北极的冰雪开始融化，可爱的企鹅也不能生存了，工厂排放的废水流进了江河湖海，让许多生活在水里的动物没有生活的家了。我们一定要保护好我们的环境，让那些可爱的动物有更好的生活环境。

大家都非常喜欢那些可爱的动物，但是大家在观赏动物的同时，请不要把喂食变成了坏事，因为饲养员为他们准备好了食物，动物吃太多的东西会生病的呀!因此我们不能随便把自己所带的东西投放到动物园中。

现在，人们的餐桌上仍有那些珍稀的保护动物，大家应该减少和杜绝捕杀和食用这些保护动物。

让我们携起手来一起保护这些珍稀而又可爱的动物吧!

同学们，想像一下吧，如果全世界的动物都没有了，生机勃勃的的世界会怎么样呢?听不见小鸟的鸣叫，看不见小鱼在活泼的游来游去，闻不到臭鼬臭粠粠的身子，摸不到小兔温暖的毛，很多关于动物乐趣，将再也享受不到了，所以保护动物真的很重要。

动物虽然不会与人类交流，但要是人类在动物有困难的时候帮助他，他也会帮助你。特别是狗，你和它生活久了，它就会把你当成自己的家人。有一部电影叫《忠犬八公》讲的是一个真实的故事，有一只狗，叫小八，它的主人对它精心照顾，小八每天送主人到火车站，接主人回家。有一天，主人生病去世了，没回来，小八就一直等呀等，还是没等着。最后，它每天去火车站，风雨无阻，等了整整十年，直到死去。一条多么让人敬佩的狗哇!

动物对人类这么友好，人们呢?毫无感谢之语，反而会杀害小动物。比如：取熊胆，就是把熊的胆汁取出来，熊每天都非常痛苦，许多熊都自杀了。还有海豚湾里的海豚，日本人最喜欢吃海豚里的一块肉，所以把它们杀了，鲜血直流，染红了大海。还有拔象牙，把拔掉的象牙拿去贩卖，把老虎杀了，拿它的骨头做药等。我们也会伤害一些小动物，把色彩缤纷的蝴蝶抓起来，关在铅笔袋里;把匍匐前进的蚯蚓踩死;把翩翩起舞的飞蛾翅膀折断等等，不管动物小不小，丑不丑，我们都要保护它们。

同学们，勿以善小而不为，勿以恶小而为之。动物是我们人类的朋友，动物能带给人们幸福，带给人们友谊，带给人们欢乐。让我们行动起来吧!一起携手，保护动物。
