戴茜是如何學會保護野生動物的
戴茜壹直以來都渴望幫助那些滅絕的野生動植物。壹天她醒來，發現床邊有壹塊飛毯。飛毯問：“妳想去哪兒？”
戴茜立刻回答道：“我想去看看瀕臨美絕的野生動物。請帶我到遙遠的地方，在那裏我可以發現為制作這件毛衣而提供毛絨的那種動物。”
飛毯立刻開始起飛了，帶她到了中國的西藏。在那裏，戴茜看到壹只藏羚羊面帶憂郁的神色。
它說：“為了取得我們肚皮底下的羊毛，我們正在被屠殺。我們的毛被用來為像妳壹樣的人們制作毛衣。因此，我們現在瀕臨滅絕了。”
聽了這話，戴茜哭了：“我很抱歉，我過去不知道還有這回事兒。我不知道為了幫助妳們正在采取什麽措施。飛毯啊，請把我帶到壹個有野生動植物保護的地方去，好嗎？”
飛毯飛行得如此之快，以致於壹轉眼他們就來到了津巴布韋。戴茜轉過身去，看到壹頭大象正望著她。大象問道：“妳是來給我拍照的嗎？”
戴茜如釋重負，突然笑了起來。“不要笑了，”大象說道，“我們過去是瀕危動物，農民們總是慘無人道地捕殺我們。他們說，我們破壞了他們的農田，而旅遊者的錢過去都流進了大型旅遊公司。
於是政府決定出面提供幫助。如果遊客付給農民錢的話，他們允許遊客來獵取壹定數量的動物。如今農民高興了，我們的數量也在增加。因此，為了拯救當地的野生動植物，他們也在做壹些好事。”
戴茜笑道：“這可是個好消息。這體現了野生動植物保護的重要性，不過，我還是想按照世界自然基金會（WWF）的建議來幫助妳們。
”飛毯再次升起，幾乎壹轉眼他們就到了茂密的熱帶雨林。壹只猴子壹邊擦著身體，壹邊望著他們。
戴茜問它：“妳在幹什麽呢？”它回答說：“我這樣做可以防止蚊蟲叮咬。當我發現壹種千足蟲，便把它擦在身上。
它含有壹種強效的藥物可以防止蚊蟲叮咬。妳們應該多加關註我的生活的熱帶雨林，並且懂得熱帶雨林的動物是如何在壹起生活的。沒有雨林，就沒有動物，也就沒有藥物了。”
戴茜很驚訝。“飛毯，請帶我回家去，我可以告訴世界自然基金會，我們可以開始生產這種新藥。猴子，請跟我回去幫忙吧。”猴子同意了，毯子飛回了家。
當他們著地時，壹切就開始消失了。兩分鐘後，什麽都沒了——猴子也沒了。這樣，戴茜就不能制造新藥了。
但是，這是壹次多麽奇妙的經歷呀！她學會了那麽多東西！而且，還有世界自然基金會呢……

HOW DAISY LEARNED TO HELP WILDLIFE英語原文如下：
Daisy had always longed to help endangered species of wildlife.
One day she woke up and found a flying carpet by her bed."Where do you want to go?"
It asked.Daisy responded immediately."I'd like to see some endangered wildlife," she said."?
Please take me to a distant land where I can find the animal that gave fur to make this sweater."?
At once the carpet flew away and took her to Tibet.There Daisy saw an antelope looking sad.
It said,"We' re being killed for the wool beneath our stomachs.Our fur is being used to make sweaters for people like you.
As a result,we are now an endangered species." At that Daisy cried,"I'm sorry I didn' t know that.I wonder what is being done to help you.
Flying carpet,please show me a place where there' s some wildlife protection."
The flying carpet travelled so fast that next minute they were in Zimbabwe.
Daisy turned around and found that she was being watched by an elephant.
"Have you come to take my photo?"it asked.In relief Daisy burst into laughter.
" Don' t laugh," said the elephant," We used to be an endangered species.Farmers hunted us without mercy.
They said we destroyed their farms,and money from tourists only went to the large tour companies." So the government decided to help.
They allowed tourists to hunt only a certain number of animals if they paid the farmers.
Now the farmers are happy and our numbers are increasing.So good things are being done here to save local wildlife".
Daisy smiled." That' s good news.It shows the importance of wildlife protection,but I' d like to help as the WWF suggests."?
The carpet rose again and almost at once they were in a thick rainforest.
A monkey watched them as it rubbed it self." What are you doing?" asked Daisy."I'm protecting myself from mosquitoes," it replied.
"When I find a millipede insect,I rub it over my body.It contains a powerful drug which affects mosquitoes.
You should pay more attention to the rainforest where I live and appreciate how the animals live together.No rainforest,no animals,no drugs."
Daisy was amazed."Flying carpet,please take me home so I can tell WWF and we can begin producing this new drug.
Monkey,please come and help." The monkey agreed.The carpet flew home.As they landed,things began to disappear.
Two minutes later everything had gone - the monkey,too.
So Daisy was not able to make her new drug.But what an experience!She had learned so much!And there was always WWF...
文章中多次出現的WWF是World Wide Fund For Nature的縮寫，指的是世界自然基金會。在全球享有盛譽的、最大的獨立性非政府環境保護組織之壹，
WWF”起初代表“World Wildlife Fund”（世界野生動植物基金會）。
1986年，WWF認識到這個名字不能完全反映組織的活動，於是改名為“World Wide Fund For Nature”（世界自然基金會）。不過美國和加拿大仍然保留了原來的名字。
目前，最初的縮寫“WWF”是我們唯壹且全球使用的名字。該縮寫從1961年以來已被大部分人認知。
使命
WWF的使命是遏止地球自然環境的惡化，創造人類與自然和諧相處的美好未來。為此我們致力於：
保護世界生物多樣性；
確保可再生自然資源的可持續利用；
推動降低汙染和減少浪費性消費的行動。
