It is really saddening to see that with so many human rights activitists, there are so few champions for the rights of these innocent creatures

Help birds as you drive.

1. Combine trips and use public transportation, bike, or walk when possible so you can drive as little as possible.
2. Drive at the slowest speed that is safe, courteous, and convenient.
3. When approaching a red light or stop sign, start coasting to a stop sooner. Accelerate gently when possible.
4. Remove heavy items from your vehicle when you don't need them.
5. Keep your tires at the proper inflation.
6. Keep your car in tune.
7. When you see wildlife ahead, look in the mirror to see if anyone is following you, and slow down if you can safely do so.

8. If you know what you're doing, keep an injured-wildlife rescue kit in the car, including phone numbers for area rehab facilities.
