ENDANGERED ANIMALS

  Endangered animals: Who's Responsible ?

"Each and every animal on Earth has as much right to be here as you and me"

Endangered animals are those species of animals that are about to extinct due to loss of their habitat and its population.According to a new estimate described by scientists as the most accurate ever, the natural word contains about 8.7 million species.

Animals such as Giant panda, Black Rhino,Orangutan,Hawksbill Turtle ,Asian Elephant,Blue Whale,Green Turtle,Ganges River Dolphin,Indian Elephant,Dugong,Whale Shark,etc. are at the line of extincion.If this doesn't stop then time will come when the future generations have to see those extinted animals only in pictures.

In the past there have been many endangered animals .Now they are extinct.Our environmenthas been affected adversely by their absence.The quality of our lives is changed. If we destroy the farmlands and the forests that is their only habitat,there is a delicate balance in nature.We humans have other alternatives to look for farmlands but the animals do not .

I have come up with few ideas to save these threatened species:

1.Get information about the species that went extinct or are about to extinct.Explain to your family and friends the importance of these animals in our surroundings.

2.Reduce,Reuse and Recycle to save rain forests. Minimize the use of non- biodegradable substances such as plastics. Buy recycled paper and sustainable products. 

3.Stop purchasing products made from endangered species like ivory,coral,tortoise shell,animal skin,etc.

4.Install a small garden at your house with new varieties of flowering plants to attract birds and buttrflies to their natural habitat.

5. Volunteer your time to protect the wildlife in your area. Pressure your civil servants by writting letters to them about this awareness.
