30、制作毛衣。因此，我们,现在濒临灭绝了。”听到这话，戴茜哭了：“我很抱歉， 我过去不知道还有这回事儿。我想知道人们正在采取什么 措施帮助你们。飞毯啊，请把我带到一个有野生动植物保 护的地方去，好吗？”飞毯飞得很快，一转眼他们就来到了津巴布韦。戴茜 转过身去，看到一头大象正望着她。大象问道：“你是来 给我们拍照的吗？”戴茜如释重负，突然笑了起来。“不 要笑了，”大象说道，“过去我们是濒危动物。农民们总 是惨无人道地捕杀我们。他们说，我们破坏了他们的农田，,而旅游者的钱都流进了大型旅游公司。于是政府决定出面提供帮助。如果游客付给农民钱的话，他们允许游客猎取一定数量的动物。如今农民高兴了，我们的数量也
