By changing my daily functions, I can work on preserving biodiversity by making my life more natural by cutting out everything harmful to the environment. In doing this I can make an alteration to what I consume along the lines of food and drink; by eating more natural and consuming unprocessed products I as an individual will be doing less damage to the environment. By cutting out fats and processed money-making gimmicks created in factories there will be less damage done by pollution and I will not be harming nature with what is consumed (Cho, 2018). Another significant change that could be made to my life world be to cut out the majority of motor transport used; for this to be done instead of catching the bus or train or even driving around I could use more pedal power on a bike to get from place to place, or if the destination is close enough walking could be put into action. This will help reduce the pollution in the air caused from engines and burning fuel and create a more healthy and substantial environment around …show more content…

The way the devil is shaped and sized depends on the habitat it is in and what food it consumes (Parks.tas.gov.au, 2018). Since 1990 the numbers of Tasmanian Devils have dropped dramatically with number of losses exceeding 100,000. One of the main causes of this is the rare cancer ‘Devil Facial Tumour Disease’ (DFTD) which is one of the two deadliest cancers in this species spreading like the flu from animal to animal. In order to protect the devils a number of precautions can be taken; for one healthy devils can be moved away from the disease to a healthier habitat until a cure has been found, similar tactics have been used by the government by moving some of the Tasmanian Devils into main land Australia to keep them DFTD free (Scholastic, 2018). Devils can also be relocated for shelter in zoos or free-range enclosures around Australia, currently 700 strong and reproductive devils have been relocated around Australia (Save the Tasmanian Devil, 2018). The devil’s other main threats can be see as more species threatening problems along with DFTD, other threats can include the habitats they live in deteriorating and becoming roadkill causing them to be food for scavengers. There have been many appeals made to save the Tasmanian Devil, but
