Dear [Friend’s Name],
I recently learned about the Great Indian Bustard, the heaviest flying bird in India. It lives in grasslands and eats insects, fruits, and even small reptiles. Sadly, only about 200 of these birds are left in the world because of hunting and habitat loss.
I want to help by spreading awareness, writing letters to leaders, and drawing posters. Will you join me in saving this wonderful bird?
Your friend,
[Your Name]
