Puffin – hello Puffin! Thank you for agreeing to help us save our |
|
 |
island. We need an individual who is genuinely interested in protecting animal life to undertake this task and that is why you have been asked to. Our island was once a paradise of lush vegetation but it is now reduced to dried and almost barren earth. The animals of our island are dying in great numbers. Puffin, we need you to investigate why this is happening. |
