Natural history

Natural history is the study of plants, animals, objects and places in the natural environment. It focuses on understanding the history of the earth, including how different species evolved and adapted over time to the changing climate and environment. People who study natural history are sometimes called naturalists. They explore their surroundings and learn about different living things, why they live where they live and how the environment affects them. They pay particular attention to endangered species, so that we can protect them and keep them safe. Naturalists share their observations and discoveries with others, which can help to conserve the environment and keep it healthy.
