RIVER DOLPHINS
River dolphins were first described by
Henri Marie Ducrotay in 1817. He also
gave them names. There are 38 kinds
of dolphins, but 33 are sea dolphins
and only 5 of them make their homes
in large rivers. Although the pink
dolphin lives in the Amazon River, it
can also be found in the Orinoco and
Madeira Rivers in smaller numbers. While they are mostly pink, river
dolphins can be light gray or brown but science has not found out why
they have their lovely color. We guess they become pinker when they
are excited, as it happens to us when we´re mad.

River dolphins, like the ones Southeast Asia or La Plata River, are clever;
however, the pinks dolphins in Amazon are the cleverest, but not as
much as dolphins in the Atlantic Ocean. Pink dolphins make sounds to
show they enjoy being close to people; some stories of people being
pushed close to the river by them are popular in the Amazon. If a pink
dolphin dies, people think something bad may happen. However, if this
happens, they will use the animal´s oil to help other animals with health
problems like infections, but they won´t use the meat.

Unfortunately, river dolphins have died as we have built new towns

around their area and changed the rain forest. Also, they are caught
with other animals to be shown in aquariums.

Environmental Education
To the editor:
I will mention my position on Environmental Education (EE) in our society.
The ability to work together towards a common goal is absolutely essential and I
consider it appears in childhood, when kids get involved in positive experiences. I
have personally discovered how nature acts positively in their development. I used
to organize expeditions to natural reservations with my son and daughter and we
would discover magnificent landscapes from which we learned a lot. Those occasions
were marvelous.
Vincent Simmons, author of “The Natural Rule”, argues how family environmental
organizations are a suitable way to get families outside to learn from nature and to
consider the importance of protecting the planet. Families are more likely to go to
natural spaces if another family arranges to go with them.
In Simmons´ opinion, getting involved in such experiences creates suitable conditions
for working together, and I agree. Children will feel more comfortable being outside
if other their age are involved too. This new approach can also be transferred to
schools where children realize the importance of wildlife and its protection. Students
will get to actually see the animals and habitats they are learning about in subjects
such as biology or science.
Active involvement in EE should be applied in the classrooms because kids will learn
better and recognize its real world application so they would be able, for instance,
to confirm in what region penguins are normally located. Such involvement may be
introduced in academic events aiming at discussing environmental education, so kids
could gain more knowledge of how our planet works and what they can do to take
care of it.

B. EE helps children to get involved in animal life easily.
