Why should we protect wildlife?


Every year, thousands of animals are extinct. Many animals that once thrived on the earth disappeared forever on our planet at a heartbreaking rate. Scientists estimate that there is a factor that is causing the current extinction of animal species 1,000 times faster than under normal conditions. What are the factors? The answer is disturbingly simple: human.

What is the problem?
We consume natural resources on the earth so fast that they are too late to regenerate. We are destroying animal habitats, food sources, water, air — and the animals themselves at an unsustainable rate. As skyscrapers rose from the ground and the bird's nest disappeared, as the river was drained into a parking lot, and as elephants were slaughtered into ivory ornaments, the number and variety of animals shrank dramatically.

In addition to a lot of resource consumption, a more disturbing trend is threatening our wildlife: smuggling. The illegal trade in animals and animal resources on the black market is increasing day by day. Due to the growing demand for the products of some of the world’s most representative terrestrial animals-such as elephants, rhinos and tigers-not only are these species threatened, but the peace, health and well-being of the people living near them Prosperity is also threatened. [Please see that the elephant was hunted for its ivory, it may be extinct within 100 years and the smashing operation will achieve another result ]

Why should we care about this issue?
The loss caused by the extinction of an animal species is not only reflected in the loss of these animals themselves. Although we may think that the animal world is independent of ours, in fact human and animal life are closely related, and we are inextricably linked to them. Plants, animals, people, and the environment together form a biological community-that is, an ecosystem-in which all parts are interdependent. If a part of such a community is out of balance or extinct, the entire system will suffer. In addition, the smuggling of wild animals can impair the safety of citizens and the income of legally operating enterprises.

Everyone can contribute
Although humans are the biggest threat to wildlife, they are also their only hope. In addition to large institutions, businesses and governments, individuals and small communities around the world are working hard to ensure that our wildlife-and humans-can have a safer future. From curbing demand for animal products, enacting and implementing laws to combat illegal trafficking, to volunteering to help protect endangered species organizations, animal protection warriors are fighting the threat to animals on earth in many ways.

Even the smallest actions can embody great meaning. We may not regenerate the species that has already disappeared, but there are many species that are on the verge of extinction, which requires our urgent attention and action. Don't create problems, but try to solve them: let us respect and protect the wild species of the earth.
