Environmental health
Environmental health shows the quality of life, that are determined by physical, chemical, biological, and social factors in the environment Refers to the theory and practice of assessing, correcting, controlling and preventing those factors in the environment that can potentially affect adversely the health of present and future generations..(According to WHO)
In addition, environmental indicators may be used as a powerful tool to raise public awareness on environmental is
More animal shows health environment Animals eats the plants and animals are responsible to regeneration of new plant Forests are being cut down, rivers and seas polluted, ponds filled ant the destruction seems endless and resulting animals become endanger and than finish on earth.

FROG
1.
Beginning in the early 1980s, biologists began to realize that amphibians such as frogs are extremely sensitive to pollution and other environmental stresses

3.
If you hear many frogs in an area, it means that the local environment is likely to be unspoiled In areas where water or air pollution have occurred, the local frog community will be affected and there are likely to be very few frogs
4.
5.
On some mining and industrial sites, surveys of frogs in the local area have been used to detect accidental pollution of waterways
Tropical frogs are specialized animals and are very sensitive to changes in their environment. Leaf litter is also a very good example of tropical frogs' habitats. It is not only a fantastic shelter for them but also a source of food (for example, the insects decomposing the litter). They can inhale toxins through their skin so if their habitat is polluted, they would start to die.
That is why they are considered "an indicator species" - the species that "indicate" the state of the health of their ecosystems.
To assess the health of aquatic ecosystems in the Lerma basin, we analyzed the current status and long-term trends in fish species occurrence at 116 widely distributed sites in relation to water quality and land use information

Conclusion.
Animals are on large-scale forest management units Animals shows Particular environmental conditions and change in ecological parameters Change in the ecosystem and ecological pattern . In short we can say animal as environmental indicator which are help to support and monitor policy on environment and health at all levels from the local to the international.
Ideas to Help
Try to reduce your 'carbon footprint'.
Prohibited destruction of wood land, pollution of rivers and ponds, the use of pesticides and herbicides. Save the endangered species like golden eagles, toads owls red squirrels etc
Point to Think
There are two kinds of people, those who do the work, and those who take the credit. Try to be in the first group; there is less competition there.
