Q: Describe how to help animals in winter.
A: There are several ways to help animals during the winter season. One can leave out food such as seeds, nuts, and fruits for birds and small animals, as well as put out fresh water daily since it can freeze quickly. Building birdhouses or shelters provides a warm place for animals to stay. Avoid using chemicals on the lawn as they can harm animals. Pets should be kept inside or watched closely when outside. Making small piles of leaves and sticks can give animals a place to hide. Driving slowly and carefully helps avoid hitting animals on the road. Hanging bird feeders in the yard and keeping them filled ensures a steady food supply. Planting evergreen trees and bushes offers natural shelter, and it's important not to disturb hibernating or resting animals. Offering suet cakes to birds provides them with the extra fat needed to stay warm. Lastly, securing trash cans prevents animals from getting trapped or consuming harmful food.
