On a larger scale, support organic farms, which are more wildlife-friendly than conventional farms, write to your lawmakers about proposed changes in the endangered status of certain species (such as the recent outrage perpetrated against gray wolves in the West), buy sustainably grown coffee, chocolate, and other rainforest products, and don%26#039;t buy exotic pets (which are often illegally harvested.)

These organizations also put strong focus on habitat conservation and fighting overharvesting:

There are also many organizations focusing on individual species or ecosystems. For example, the Rainforest Action Network (http://www.ran.org/), which does rainforests, or Vital Ground (http://www.vitalground.org/), which focuses on grizzlies.
On the wildlife front, overhunting/harvesting and habitat destruction are the two biggest threats facing most wildlife species today.
One of the best things you can do for local wildlife is to plant an organic garden with native trees, shrubs, and flowers. It%26#039;s beautiful and it can attract birds, butterflies, and other wildlife to your yard.
