Animal Extinction
Ironically,
it's supposed that humans are intelligent species, but we are not capable of understanding those wild animals (the ones we kill every day) are one of the most
significant components in saving a country's common habitat. In any case, human
avarice and obstruction through the years have caused an increase of the
animals included in the list of "endangered to extinction".
Wild creatures
like tigers and elephants, for the most part, known for their elegance, thanks
to evolution now have beautiful horns, skin, and hair. It’s a shame we’re
killing them for our benefit. Millions of people around the globe sell the body
parts of different animals for millions of pesos. But they don’t take
into account that even if we don’t notice, wild animals bring many
things to the planet.
One of the
main causes of animal extinction is global warming. Mother Earth and its
residents depend on the seasons for their routines and timings. Mating season,
migration, all of it due to the weather. With global warming, the timing of
seasons are changing, and we are not realizing this. Some are longer than expected, some are
shorter than hoped. While it seems nothing to us, humans, it is consequential
towards animals and plants. This is directly
affecting wild animals.
Chasing and
poaching are additionally one of the primary drivers behind the peril of
creatures. Different body portions of creatures are utilized for business
purposes. Thus, to fulfill these requests, chasing creatures is basic in the
natural life region. As technology and new methods of construction are
advancing rapidly, humans are taking more and more natural terrain. With
urbanization, we are destroying the habitat of animals and with it the animals
too. Humans are destroying millions of acres of trees in our forests, taking
away the home of koalas, birds, and monkeys.
Residents of
each country and the legislature speaking to them should meet up and make
strides in diminishing these killings by making a sheltered climate for the
wild creatures where they can endeavor and imitate. Different estimates like
structure asylums, exacting activity against poaching and untamed life activism
have just been taken up which has expanded the number of inhabitants in wild
creatures.
But not
everything is bad. More people are coming together around the globe to protest,
to ask for legislation, to ask for shelters for these animals and to make
donations to protect them.
We are not God. We don't have the right to decide who has to die.
As quoted by
Derrick Jensen, "No matter what we call it, poison is still poison, death
is still death, and industrial civilization is still causing the greatest mass
extinction in the history of the planet."
Therefore, it means that the
main reason for animal extinction is because of humans.
