World Habitat Day – 1 October 2024
From humans to animals, we all need a place to call home. Just like us, animals and birds rely on their habitats for shelter, safety, and survival. But did you know:
70% of bird species rely on forests as their primary home.
Elephants use grasslands and savannas as their shelter, but over 60% of these habitats have been lost to deforestation.
Tigers need large territories to thrive, but their habitat has shrunk by 95% in the last century.
Sea turtles nest on beaches, and rising sea levels are threatening their homes.
Every species plays a vital role in maintaining our planet’s delicate ecosystem, and protecting their habitats is essential for biodiversity and our future. Khoi San E FoundatIon urges all of our readers to do our part to protect these natural homes and ensure every creature has a safe place to thrive.
