The Importance Of Endangered Species

Throughout evolution, many species have come and gone. What causes a species to become extinct and what can the human race due to prevent it? Many species’ population decline has been linked to human causation. An endangered species is defined as “plant and animal species that are at risk for extinction” (Funk). Endangered species can be placed into two more specific categorizes. Threatened species are species at risk for endangerment, while endangered species are at risk for extinction. Despite

Protect Endangered Species During the 1920s endangered species were a topic of discussion just as they are today. In the 1920s, many animals were endangered due to over hunting and poaching. Animals that became endangered during the 1920s include several types of whales, koalas, and many more. Today, many more animals have become endangered. If endangered species are not protected, these species can eventually become extinct. Although extinction is an inevitable process, endangered species should

reservations are only helping a small part of the widespread habitat ruination. “Scientists tell us the best way to protect endangered species is to protect the special places where they live. Wildlife must have places to find food, shelter and raise their young. Logging, oil and gas drilling, over-grazing and development all result habitat destruction. Endangered species habitat should be protected and these impacts minimized. By protecting

yourself at a zoo or in front of the television and you find that there are no animals left and that the last animal of kind was poached for its hide, fur, or ivory. With the dramatic decline of endangered animals, this possibility is eminent. In 1973 the United States implemented the Endangered Species act, to replace the earlier more insufficient act of 1966. Reason being, is because peregrine falcons who managed pest, alligators who kept local ecosystems in check, and the Bald Eagle who managed

obstacles affect the endangered species’ environment. This frightening situation occurs all too frequently. Endangered species encounter challenges like no other and with these hardships, the species struggle and face the chance of extinction. Since the agricultural and construction threat to endangered species persists, the number of threatened species continues to expand and suffer. Prevention Measures Strategies implemented by conservation centers can provide endangered species basic security for

In his paper on animal rights, Peter Singer takes a moment to discuss the preservation of endangered species. Singer entertains the idea that one can argue that the preservation of an endangered species is similar to preserving a work of art by the fact that the reason for preserving an endangered species could be the enjoyment of humans. For instance, if I broke into the Louvre and destroyed the one Mona Lisa on display I would prevent any further person the joy of travelling to the Louvre to see

seriousness of endangered species. Some sources go as far as trying to prove that the act does more harm than good. They do not realize how drastically their lives can be changed if one part of the food chain is taken away. In the essay “Why the Beaver Should Thank the Wolf” by Mary Hannibal, the essayist explains that a group of environmental nonprofits would challenge the federal government’s removal of Endangered Species Act protections for wolves in Wyoming. Hannibal does not explain the Endangered Species

Endangered Animals Humans are destructive. Not a lot of us think about how what we do affects the world around us. We almost act like we are the only ones on this planet. We go around polluting and destroying our world with no regard for our actions. The things that live out in the wild are paying the price for it. Every day that passes there is another animal or plant that is placed on an endangered list. This is happening at an alarming rate. Because of man’s desire to expand and conquer their

think of the land of the lemurs. However, what would happen if there were no more lemurs? This is a harsh but readily approaching reality of Madagascar today. Lemurs are known as the world’s most endangered mammals, and specifically the Simpona, otherwise known as the Silky Sifaka lemur, is critically endangered. If treatments of Madagascar’s habitat, specificity the small mountainous area of northeastern Madagascar where the Simpona lemur reside, continue being treated as they are today, this will not
