In a world where people are taking over the homes of animals, frogs are silently asking for help. They face many problems like not having enough clean water to live in. But during the pandemic, when things were quieter, they had a better life with cleaner surroundings. Now, it’s important for the Maltese government and groups like Ambjent Malta to clean up places where frogs live, just like they did in Wied Liemu. They also need to protect frogs from animals like the American crayfish that eat them. By doing this, we can make sure frogs stick around for a long time, which is good for nature and for us.

The Mediterranean Monk Seal is a rare type of seal that lives in warm waters. They are called Monachus Monachus scientifically. They can live up to 45 years, but usually live around 20 to 25 years. Their main predators are killer whales and tiger sharks. They eat things like eels, sardines, and tuna. Sadly, human activities like taking over their habitat and pollution, especially from plastic, are putting them in danger. There are only about 700 left, so we need to act fast to save them. We should work together to protect not only the Mediterranean Monk Seal but also all marine life.
