International volunteering does not only mean helping people who are in need. There are also some
animals that need voluntary help. Compared to humans, animals are luckier because they do not know how to express their emotions (情感). They do not know how to express what they want and they do not
know how to express what makes them hurt. Some people may think that volunteering to help animals is
hard; it may be true but _____.
If you volunteer to help animals in China, you can help support the endangered (濒危的) species of
pandas. The country of Costa Rica offers a sea turtle conservation area (保护区). You can work on the pacific coasts or in the Caribbean and save one of the most unusual creatures in the world, the sea turtles. But if you want thrills and adventures, you can volunteer to help feed those rare white lions in the Lion Park in Johannesburg, a city of South Africa and have fun with other wild animals. You can also go to
Guayaquil, Ecuador where international volunteer programs have been offered include helping animals like crocodiles. Volunteering in Malaysia is a great experience too. Taking good care of the orangutans
(猩猩), feeding them right and saving them from any illness are just some of the things you can do. Aside
