Save and Create Animal Habitats

Be a Responsible Pet Owner

  • Protect wildlife from your pet - keep your pet inside at night and on a leash where there is wildlife

‘Do the right thing' with Waste

  • Put your rubbish and cigarette butts in the bin
  • Avoid waste production by reusing or recycling your waste
  • Buy a worm farm or compost for your food scraps and organic waste
  • Say no to plastic bags and excessive packaging

Think, then ask before you Buy - ‘Will what I'm buying affect wildlife?'

  • Look for and purchase products that are friendly to the environment.
  • Choose a sustainable energy source and energy efficient appliances

Speak Out, Get Involved and Take Action for Wildlife

  • Tell local, state and federal ministers that you care, want support and action taken to help protect animals and their habitats

For example Zoos and aquariums across Australasia have joined together to enlist one million supporters to encourage the Government of China to phase out the ‘farming' of bears used to extract their bile to be used in traditional medicine. Click here to sign this communiqué.
