The Conservation Of Wildlife Animals

“Those who wish to pet and baby wild animals "love" them. But those who respect their natures and wish to let them live normal lives, love them more,” (Teale). This quote shows that people who keep wild animals as pets do not realize that the native environment provides the wild animals with the necessities they cannot receive as a pet. Permits should not be given to people to own wild and exotic animals as pets because it is inhumane and dangerous.

The National Wildlife Federation, or NWF, can be accessed for in depth information via their interest group website at www.nwf.org. Selection of the National Wildlife Federation, for myself, was brought forth by my affinity for the outdoors and nature in general. Growing up enjoying activities such as canoeing, camping, fishing, hiking and boating has allowed myself to gain a respect for the vastness of our nations wild beauty. Along with this respect comes the aspiration to pass the joy of the outdoors along to my children and thus I feel diving into the NWF will prove to be beneficial to our family. Having no prior knowledge of this organization, I am very much excited about the task of deciphering this entity.

In addition to providing the animal with shelter, and necessary supplies the natural parks can bring back a whole species from near extinction. In the passage “The Impact of Animal Protection” it directly states that keeping animals protected has proven to be beneficial and increase the population of endangered animals. Bringing animals back from near extinction can be a difficult task, however it is very beneficial. Animal protection is also used to help control animal population from getting out of control. These programs have brought back plenty of species such as black footed ferrets, California condors, red wolves, and golden lion tamarins. (Do Animals Lose in Zoos?) The community would never get to see these amazing creatures if these

The animals are in trouble, and we need to help. Whether you want to believe it or not, animals seen all around the globe are slowly dying out. We can 't fully stop this devastating loss of life, but we can prevent animals dying from causes like pollution, deforestation, and hunting. What does endangered mean to you? Does it mean some unimportant animal is dying out or does it mean that part of our world as we know it is falling apart? Endangered animals are endangered for a reason. Were trying to keep them around as long as we can. We can 't sit around waiting for the animals to help themselves, we have to do something to help. There 's so many types of

“Kindness and compassion towards all living things is a mark of a civilized society. Conversely, cruelty, whether it is directed against human beings or against animals, is not the exclusive province of any one culture or community of people” (César Chávez). Over the years, scientists have struggled to establish a technological way to ensure that their experiments are both safe and accurate. However, economic and political afflictions occurred during the twentieth century that restrained researchers from finding alternatives to test their new drugs. The inflation of disease, the need for cosmetics, and the essence of science urged scientists to conduct their experiments on animals since it was

Tigers, zebras, and gorillas are wonderful and interesting yet some never should be pets and belong in the zoo. There are two sides to this question some argue that people should be able to keep wild animals as pets or in captivity because it provides protection for the animals and zoos help educate visitors about animals but others say they shouldn’t be able to keep wild animals as pets or in captivity because of the wide spread of disease and because of untrained owners.

Many different species have become endangered. However, before they could become extinct, zoos try to find ways to save, breed, and protect those endangered species, bringing them back to life. Zoos are able to nurse a species back to fruition. This can also relate back to the breeding that zoologists are doing research on, as well as the other different types of research that they are finding while researching endangered species. Within an article based on mammal’s life span within zoos, the author, Danny Stanton speaks of the research that zoos take on their animals. “Years of research have improved all aspects of managing animals in human care. Most zoos believe in managing animals scientifically based on what has been learned about their biology, behavior, social structures, health, and nutrition” (Stanton). Not only do zoos thrive in the research side of helping endangered or hurt animals, but they are also able to help the animals back to full health after injuries from their natural wild habitat. Already injured animals can thrive in the zoos because they are able to work with trainers to regain their full strength back. Then once the full strength is returned to the animal, they have to high possibility of being able to go back into their natural environment. However, sometimes the wild has to slowly introduced to them so they can learn to survive on their own again or they are protected and kept in the zoos if it is not safe for them. With that and the research,

History has shown that humans and wildlife always come in conflict for territory and resources, and a majority of the time humans emerge victorious. Humans have drastically and permanently altered the environment to suit their needs, usually creating negative consequences for the native fauna. But, as of late, we as a society are coming together, recognizing these effects and working towards restoring ecological balance. Even so, places on UC Davis, a school that emphasizes and teaches the importance of ecological balance and sustainability, like the Quad are limited in supporting wildlife due to fragmentation by buildings and heavy traffic. However, at locations like the Arboretum and Putah Creek Reserve, the environmental needs are put above humans’ and as such, the native fauna are returning. Wildlife will thrive and remain a part of UC Davis’ future if administration, faculty, and students designate and maintain areas such as Putah Creek to be fit for the ecosystem and its species.

Krech ends this chapter saying, “An ideology permeated by the hope of reciprocity deeply embedded in native social and natural relations also parallels the ideological predisposition of many Western ecologists and wildlife biologists.” (Krech, 1999 P. 209) While I think there is certain level of truth in this comparison looking at wildlife conservation, I would argue that the interests of Native Indigenous groups’s and Biologists of European decent in conservation historically stem from greatly differing places, thus making their outlooks parallel only at a surface level. One of my key takeaways from this reading was that, at lease in some substantial capacity, the conservationist movement in North America, adopted by European colonialists, was not born out of ethical awakening, but in the face of resource scarcity. Furthermore, in the seventeenth century a concern for beaver conservation and having, “Beaver meat and skins in the greatest abundance.” (Krech, 1999, P. 182) would not arise without beavers being seen as valuable commodities on the European market. More specifically, it was noticed that those commodities could and would run dry, if precautions were not taken to maintain them cyclically. Thus arose Le Jeune’s initial idea of not killing every beaver in sight, but the only the, “males and of those only such as are large.” (Krech, 1999, P.182) as to kill just enough to maximize profits, but not to many, as to insure repopulation for the next season.

I am writing to you today to express my concerns and to propose a plan regarding the serious issue with wildlife endangerment. More than 100 million animals are killed each year. Some are simply killed by hunters which essentially can be debated but the majority are killed for chemical testing used in biology labs and climate change. We, as a society, need to act to start protecting the wildlife throughout the world. I believe that this is an important issue because by protecting nature’s animals, we are enriching the earth. When we take care of wildlife, it helps keep water clean and gives us the ability to drink fresh water. If we can all work together, I think that we can lower the number of wildlife endangerment all together.

Theodore Roosevelt knew the importance of conservation. By the end of his presidency, he had reserved six cultural areas and twelve natural areas. These lands were administered by the Agriculture Department. Theodore Roosevelt was known as “the conservation president.” Aldo Leopold has been called the “father of wildlife conservation” and is credited with an approach to land use as an understanding in community. And, Rachel Carson a “biologist” challenged the thought of human mastery over nature.

In areas of the world where economic development has been in delicate balance with protecting wildlife and natural environments, conflict has arisen between humans and the wildlife. In Africa (bless the rains) and Asia habitat is being replaced by small scale agricultural needs, and agribusiness (1) resulting in human–wildlife conflict; within India alone as many as 1144 people were killed between April 2014 and May 2017 (2) according to their environment ministry. This increased conflict between species has had detrimental impacts on conservation efforts, such as with the Asian elephant.

When studying endangered species, scientists do not simply expect at the species that are most probable to become extinct, but also threatened species that could become threatened in the future as well as critical habitats, which is critical to the survival of both exposed and threatened species in all. Bocking (2009) mentions that, "regulatory agencies frame their objectives in terms defined by science, with contaminants measured in the parts per billion, and the status of endangered species evaluated in terms of population and ecosystem ecologies" (p. 64). The Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada also recognized as the COSEWIC is an autonomous committee of wildlife experts and scientists who assess the preservation

Humans are not the only habitants of this earth so are the wildlife that surrounds us. We are in symbiosis relationship with the animals that are around us. Due to the population boom of humans, we are at a constant clash between the natural world and the human world. When the habitats of these animals are under severe pressure and a large number of species of wild fauna have become endangered, the significance of wildlife conservation becomes urgent. The increase in human populations has had a negative effect on the wildlife population. Studies have shown that with an increase of human population, there has been a steady decrease in wildlife population. This is due to more land being used by humans which in turn decreases or damages

Conservation is the act of using and protecting resources properly. Catching animals, throwing garbage, and using and harnessing the different resources should all adhere to the proper way of conservation.\
