| YOUR DIAGNOSIS: Excellent! That's great! Enjoy your surroundings and help save threatened species in the area by behaving responsibly in natural environments. Encourage your friends, your family and other members of the community to do the same. | YOUR DIAGNOSIS: The park isn't bad, but . . . Why not take pictures of special points of interest, like animal feeding and resting areas, or colonies of flowering plants? Go back later to the same locations with your pictures to see how things have changed over time. Does your diagnosis change over time? You can also discover various species in your area by joining a nature group to count birds, frogs or plants. | YOUR DIAGNOSIS: Room for improvement. [Things must improve!] Many heads are better than one! Talk to people about your concerns; they might join your improvement efforts. You can also learn to identify invasive species.
