Tips to avoid harming wildlife

As we have seen in a previous post, taking care of natural ancestors is not only taking care of the material from a sustainable and environmental perspective, but also our history, culture and identity.

That is why we share 10 tips to avoid harming wildlife when you are outside or inside your home, whether inside or outside your country.

First, 10 tips when you go out.

  1. Find out about the places you visit so that you make good decisions. This way, you will know the offers and avoid the market that abuses the natural environment and its inhabitants. It will also help you to comply with the next tips.
  2. Prefer establishments or accommodations that help local preservation. Those places that take care of the environment and that promote local culture.
  3. Visit protected destinations. Prefer those projects that favor conservation. This is how income is generated for this. This is how income is generated to restore existing heritage and native fauna.
  4. Never buy souvenirs of endangered species. Even if they are cheap or sold wholesale, demand only perpetuates supply.
  5. Pick up the trash you find along the way and save yours until you can throw it away in a container, ideally a recycling container. This way you will not only avoid contamination but you will also clean up what is already there.
  6. Only build bonfires in established places and make sure to put them out properly when you leave. It is a frequent cause of fires, which results in the loss of thousands of hectares of native forest.
  7. Leave the animals alone, do not bother them as much for your own good as for theirs. Several animals tend to defend themselves if they are disturbed and can be aggressive. In addition, no one likes to be disturbed when they are simply living.
  8. Be kind to the local people. Maintaining good relationships allows for a better cultural exchange, a relationship of respect that is perpetuated into the future and allows for a better human environment.
  9. Save on the establishments you visit. Just like at home, save energy by turning off the light, save water when brushing your teeth, hands or showering, use less paper when drying your hands and the other tips we will give later.
  10. Share these ideas with other travelers. One person can make a small change, but many can make a huge change in the preservation of wildlife.
