Implications Of Wildlife In Wildlife

“For the first time since the dinosaurs disappeared, humans are driving animals and plants to extinction faster than new species can evolve, one of the world's experts on biodiversity has warned” (Jowit, 2010). The movie informs the viewers that we are not the only species that lives on earth and that we are the reasons for many extinctions. Therefore, many government organization are regulating hunting, fishing, and preserving endangered

Forests have been cut, crops planted, pastures seeded, and urban areas paved. One of the most troubling consequences of human modification of ecosystems is an ongoing loss of species and therefore a loss of biodiversity around the world. The current extinctions have a human cause: habitat loss (such as clearing of tropical rainforests); the introduction of invasive species; unregulated hunting and fishing; and pollution of water, air, and

According to the IUCN World Park Congress (2003), Human-Wildlife Conflict (HWC) occurs when wildlife resource requirements overlap with those of human populations, creating costs both to communities adjacent to protected areas and the wildlife within them. At present the phenomenon poses a serious challenge to both the human livelihoods and the flora and fauna globally (Berger & McGraw 2007).

In today’s world, hardly any species of wildlife become extinct from natural causes. Europeans hunt animals to such an extent that we classify it as overhunting. We destroy their habitat, and introduce other animals that are a threat to endangered animals or are competition for resources and food. Habitat destruction is the greatest threat to both animals and plants.

“Waking up hours before the dawn, and to know the utter silence of a late autumn morning. Hearing the crunch of snow under your boots as you begin the hike into the distant, silent mountains. Smelling the pines along the trail, and see the silent sentinel spruces on the ridge, barely glimpsed in the pre-dawn dark. It’s enough to sit, shivering, at the best spot on the top rim of a remote basin, watching the east grow bright, waiting for the first rays of warm sunshine to break through the trees and drive away the bitter cold of night.” Although some people think that hunting is animal cruelty, I believe that hunting is crucial to maintain the balance of animal population before they become over populated. Hunting in general is a broad topic so, I will be using deer as the main point.

According to recent research, hunters put millions of dollars into environmental conservation annually. Anything from paying for their hunter safety course and hunting license to big hunting groups buying and donating thousands of acres worth of land to preserves and national parks. For example, back in 2008, The Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation stepped up to help The Nature Conservancy to acquire an 800-acre piece of Minnesota grasslands. Hunting is important for more than just conservation. In a world where technology and cities are growing more and more popular, the greater population (especially children and teenagers) are starting to slip away from the outdoors and the natural world. Hunting is a way to keep that connection alive, something that can be passed down from generation to generation; like my father brought me, and like I intend to bring my children and grandchildren. Mr. Herring quotes Brian Van Eerden, saying “Hunting helps foster a relationship to the land that is crucial to future conservation efforts”. More than just being important to future conservation efforts, that relationship to the land is crucial to life

Each year, hunters contribute billions of dollars to the economy and conservation efforts. Sadly, without these conservationists, all of the land that is maintained for outdoor recreation would be lost. When a person betters the environment to increase their enjoyment of hunting, they are also indirectly benefiting everything else in the area. The hunters pay for a majority of the land used for bird watching, hiking, and other outdoor sports. Lately, hunting has been under fire for no longer being needed in today's life. Many people do not believe how much hunting contributes to the environment in order to conserve public land. Also, a lot of people do not know of the health benefits of hunting. Along with the benefit of a relatively more active lifestyle, the hunter also enjoys a healthier and completely all natural meat. Hunting is constantly criticized for being no longer needed, but it is shown that hunters not only help conservation efforts, they also lead a healthier lifestyle.

Conservative leaders wanted to ensure Americans’ views of wildlife were in accordance with the sustainability of healthy wildlife population laws. Leaders such as Theodore Roosevelt, Aldo Leopold, George Bird Grinnell, and the hunters and anglers of North America came together to ensure that wildlife would belong to the people, while also not being exploited by them (R.M.E.F.). These early conservationists saw a need to preserve wildlife and their habitat located within the greater North Americas. With many species close to extinction during the late 19th century, the model provided regulations on animal populations that would protect the declining wildlife. This was the first sign of any conservation effort in our

As housing developments grow, species lose their habitat and are forced to wander into cities and places with a greater human presence in search for food. When deforestation occurs animals’ homes are destroyed, and there is not enough land for the food chain to properly function. Prey animals, such as deer and rabbits, diminish in numbers. Then predators die off because of lack of food. Finally, prey animals repopulate and over populate because of the lack of predators (Deforestation). Some people believe that even as we build more buildings and cut down forests, animal populations will continue to thrive and balance themselves out. They also believe animals do not need to be hunted. This is not true. The presence of humans in the environment creates a situation in which animal populations become irregular due to habitat shrinkage. The problem increases with the human

Terrestrial wildlife is a key segment of tropical woods groups as pointers of environment wellbeing and suppliers of critical biological system administrations (Ahumada et al., 2011). Wildlife customarily alludes to undomesticated creature species, yet has come to incorporate all plants, parasites, and different living beings that develop or live wild in a territory without being presented by people. Wildlife could be found in all biological communities. Deserts, woodlands, rain backwoods, fields, meadows, and different zones including the most created urban territories, all have particular types of natural life. While the term in mainstream culture as a rule alludes to creatures that are untouched by human components, most researchers concur that much natural life is influenced by human activities. This will cause the possibility of wildlife being extinct before their numbers are known. People had verifiably tended to separate human advancement from untamed life in various ways including the lawful, social, and good sense. A few creatures, in any case, have adapted to rural conditions. This incorporates such creatures as tamed felines, pooches, mice, and gerbils. A few religions pronounced certain creatures to be holy, and in present day times sympathy toward the regular habitat has incited activists to challenge the abuse of wildlife for human advantage or use. When productivity of wildlife decreases, people tend looking for them in new area. This step would allow for

“It’s frightening but true: our planet is now in the midst of a sixth mass extinction of plants and animals” (Greenwald). I know what you are thinking. Does this include humans too? No, not yet at least. But, animal species from all over the world are struggling to survive in their own habitats. Why? Well, because of you, and by you, I mean the human race. Animal extinction is caused by humans because we cause climate change, poach endangered species, and we destroy habitats.

A: The animal population is going down due to human activity, mainly habitat destruction and overexploitation of wildlife. We as humans destroy the many habitats of animals for our agricultural needs, and we also just really like to eat animals.

Bill Freedmen, author of “Endangered Species—Human Causes Of Extinction and Endangerment” notes, “scientists approximate that present extinction rates are 1,000 to 10,000 times higher than the average natural extinction rate.” These distressing numbers should be acted upon to save the endangered species and avoid the catastrophic change to this planet if these species were to become extinct. In order to produce change, people need to recognize that habitat loss, climate change, and poaching are all factors in why our animal species are going extinct.

To begin, over the course of history human activities have drastically changed or destroyed the natural habitats that are essential to the survival of plants and animals. We have been known to pollute habitats, hunt and kill animals illegally, and our trivial need to fulfill our aches for luxurious lifestyle often has the side effect and disrespecting home and resources of other species that we share the plant Earth with. Our human population is multiplying at an alarming rate

One of the primary causes for the loss of a species habitat are humans. Like I said before we humans need and want things and will exercise that action at any cost. More good and space is required as the world’s population grows. The only way to get those things is by taking it. Agriculture land is in high demand with the amount of people that need to be fed and housed. We are able to achieve these lands by
