Un Mensaje Para Luna (Moon's Messenger)

A little inquisitive girl and a great green turtle go on a journey that will remind them of the importance of preserving and respecting the environment.

Moon knew it was unusual to see a green turtle. Out of all the sea turtles in the world, they were the species that was most at risk. The turtle beckoned, Come, with its strong front flipper, and, as if it had actually spoken, Moon knew that it wanted to show her something. This is how the two of them submerged themselves in the water and embarked on a journey that would take them to witness the wonders of the world, but also its threats.

Many animals are endangered or threatened due to human actions. An endangered animal is a species that will only be able to survive for a short period of time unless action is taken to save it.

Una gran tortuga verde y una niña muy curiosa emprenderán un viaje que les recordará la importancia de preservar y respetar el medio ambiente.

Luna sabía que no era fácil ver una tortuga verde. De todas las tortugas marinas del mundo, esta especie era la más amenazada. Tortuga Verde parecía preocupada. Le hizo un gesto con su fuerte aleta delantera para que se acercara y, como si de verdad hubiese hablado, Luna comprendió que tenía un mensaje para ella. Así fue como las dos se sumergieron en el agua y emprendieron un viaje que las llevaría a presenciar las maravillas del mundo, pero también las amenazas que este sufre.

Muchos animales se encuentran en peligro debido a las acciones del ser humano. Un animal en peligro de extinción es una especie que solo podrá sobrevivir por un corto período de tiempo a menos que se tomen acciones para salvarlo.
