We have a lot of problems and not many solutions–let’s change that. 


Some of the challenges we face as a whole primarily contain togetherness; no one is ever on the same page. Well, one of the solutions I have for us is a common goal of protecting Chimpanzees. Chimpanzees are pretty minimal when it comes to harm. They are borderline harmless, let’s be real…


One of the things I would like to propose would be creating a law saying if animals don’t hurt you, you can’t hurt them. I know we have many laws like that already, but another one for some insurance and a friendly reminder won’t hurt. I think it would be good for us. We could increase the penalties for someone when it comes to harming chimps; nevertheless, any animal, especially endangered ones.


Let’s make a bill, a bill that states no one can touch the beloved, harmless, and cute endangered chimpanzees. I don’t mean a US bill, I’m talking about NATO. We need this to be enforced by everyone, at least everyone with power. 


Three reasons why chimps are unable to thrive are habitat loss, disease, and hunting. ⅔ of those can be helped by us. Diseases, on the other hand, would be a little more difficult to tackle, but it is doable. People need to stop destroying their homes, families, and land because before we know it just like that, they will be gone.

My name is Elijah Novy and I am an 18-year-old from Hartland Wisconsin. I have a passion for these types of animals. I hope to own one when I am older. To me, a chimpanzee can set you free. Be a man's best friend, maybe an only friend.
