From September to February each year， Dazhong Mountain in Chuxiong， Yunnan is home to more than 50，000，000 migratory birds(候鸟). People used to call the mountain Daqueshan， which means the bird－hunting mountain.
The villagers used to hunt birds on the mountain. Then one year， they couldn’t hear birds singing. People started to worry that migratory birds would not return again. In 1984， the Hongtupo Forest Police Station was set up to protect the birds. The officers worked on the mountain， trying to find migratory birds and stop people from hunting them. The job was really difficult. They might lose their way or meet dangerous animals.
The officers also tried to tell villagers the importance of protecting birds and other wild animals. They visited the villagers door to door and helped them with farm work. They even organized activities in schools to get their messages across to children. Now， even children know that birds are to be loved.
The mountain is greener， the water is clearer， and more and more animals come to live here. It has become a bird－protecting mountain. Many people have opened bed－and－breakfasts(民宿)for birdwatchers.
“The village has changed a lot， and we don’t hunt birds anymore，” people say. Since people have stopped hunting， the police station now mainly works to save injured(受伤的)wildlife.

Pets
Now， more and more people like to keep pets. Some even treat them as family members. As an animal lover，I agree that pets are our loyal friends—they stay with us and even help with simple tasks. But I don’t think it is good for people to keep so many pets. Why？　
First，they may disturb neighbors or cause risks，like biting kids. Second，pets in public often leave waste. What’s more，keeping pets requires time and money.
In short，while pets bring warmth and happiness to our lives，we should keep a reasonable number of them. This way，we can enjoy their company without causing trouble to ourselves or others.
