Park cleanup:On a sunny day we were able to go out to the park and pick by ourselves trash that was open to the view of birds. Birds mistake trash for food and they end up eating it this result in the fact that they die somewhere else with all the trash they consumed.
Beach Cleanup:The beach cleanup we took part of in which helped into our part of the project
Action Phase:Some of the members of the Animal Rescue Elite organization went to a Mexican beach and picked up some of the many trash that was around the shoreline of the coast. These efforts have contributed to some change. No act of kindness is ever wasted, every act has or makes a change no matter how small it is. This effort of kindness has helped in many ways. According to studies, plastic entanglements increase 40% for marine animals.

The Humpback whale is no longer endangered:
Humpback whale populations are to be declassified as 'endangered' following a successful conservation programme.
At one stage the worldwide population dropped to just a few thousand due to over-fishing and hunting, but it has now recovered to 90,000.
However, some experts have warned it is too soon to declare the conservation project a success, and that more information is needed to make such a decision.

Western Black Rhino officially declared extinct:
Africa's western black rhino is now officially extinct according the latest review of animals and plants by the world's largest conservation network.
The subspecies of the black rhino -- which is classified as "critically endangered" by the International Union for Conservation of Nature's (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species -- was last seen in western Africa in 2006.
The IUCN warns that other rhinos could follow saying Africa's northern white rhino is "teetering on the brink of extinction" while Asia's Javan rhino is "making its last stand" due to continued poaching and lack of conservation.
