Instagram fights wild animal abuse - Catherine - 12-11-2017

Instagram has a new alert system in place that sends a message if you look for a certain type of animal picture. 
I will let you read about it. My explanation is not going to be as good as the article.

This is good news. The latest selfie craze, a selfie with a wild animal, is harming animals. 
Anything that social media can do to curb destructive human behavior is good. I am glad to know that Instagram has a conscience. 

You can tell that I am not on Instagram, but I know many people are and influencing them for good is important. Well done Instagram.
