3. Turn Your Backyard into a Wildlife Oasis: Plant native species to attract local wildlife and provide them with a much-needed habitat. Even a small balcony can host a pot of flowers for bees and butterflies.

4. Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle: The three Rs are your weapons against habitat destruction. By minimizing waste, you protect the natural homes of countless species.

5. Citizen Science Projects: Participate in wildlife surveys from your backyard or even your computer. Many organizations rely on citizen scientists to track bird migrations, butterfly populations, and more.
