What Can You Do?

To support Wildlife Conservation, you can of course always subscribe to WildlifeoPedia for free. If you'd like to support any bigger organizations directly, you can head over to the WildlifeoFundraiser to check out some cool links redirecting you to the owner's external websites. 

You could of course also support Wildlife Conservation by educating others or being aware of your footprint. Here are some additional steps you could take to minimize your carbon footprint on our planet:

1. Quit buying fast fashion items, instead, you could try taking a look at the items you can still wear or use in your garderobe

2. Be aware of what food you eat and how it's produced by the manufacturer or ideally, start producing your own

3. Adapt your garden to be eco-friendly, as an example: you could plant extra (native) pollinator-friendly plants & flowers to stimulate the growth of biodiversity in your garden and create habitats for beneficial insects and small animals by adding birdhouses or insect hotels

4. Try using solar energy to power (parts of) your house or car

5. Minimize soil disturbance by practicing no-till gardening. This preserves soil structure and encourages healthy microorganisms

6. Take a look at what you can give a second life by recycling it, like paper you haven't used

7. Separate your rubbish: Consider separating your bins by having (bin) bags for recyclables, organic waste, and general waste

8. Be aware of how your products are produced, like what materials have been used to produce it or how the manufacturer handles any potential waste

9. Choose for brands that prioritize sustainability

10. Conserve energy: Turn off any lights or electronics you aren't currently using

11. Reduce your water usage

12. Participate in local clean-up events where they remove litter from parks, beaches or other public spaces

13. Walk, use a bike or use public transportation instead of a car to reduce your carbon footprint

14. Support environmental organizations, like WWF, IFAW or World Animal Protection

15. Be aware of the latest conservation projects and/or challenges

16. Support WildlifeoPedia

Many people panic when a bat, insect, or other wild animal enters their home, often reacting with fear instead of compassion. Though I understand where the fear could come from when a huge spider would be crawling around the house, I'd like to tell you that there are often better solutions than killing the animal. Unfortunately, the incident of where an animal enters the house usually leads to the animal being killed or hurt, though it’s almost always an accident when an animal enters your house driven by misunderstanding or panic. In reality, these animals don’t want to harm you at all—they’re usually far more scared of you than you are of them. Bats, for example, play a crucial role in ecosystems by controlling insect populations, pollinating plants, and dispersing seeds. Rather than harming them, a more humane approach is to calmly guide the animal outside by opening windows and turning off lights, allowing it to navigate back to safety. Killing these animals not only disrupts ecosystems but is often unnecessary when humane solutions exist. 

Here's a post by Nature and Animals Shared Through Facebook:

''Hello... I'm a bat... I don't suck blood and I don't want to get stuck in your hair.

If I accidentally walk into your house,

please don't hit me with sticks or brooms, it really hurts and I'm very scared.

It was an accident, I didn't want to scare you. If I land, I may not be able to get up and I need your help. Just use a towel to get me out and I'll fly right away, I promise. I eat mosquitoes and many other insects. Our houses are being demolished for other buildings and we only have a few places to shelter. so if I fly into your house, turn off the lights, leave the outside light on and leave the door open, I'll be out in a heartbeat.

Be a human, I want to live too..''

So the next time you see a wild animal in your house, try and think of a different solution first before killing or harming it, you'll be a great member of the WildlifeoPedia Family if you do so...
