Nowadays, Many endangered species are on the verge of extinction due to the rapid human

developments on earth are driving wildlife population to the brink of extinction. In my essay I would
like to discuss about the main causes of this issue and also suggest some novel solutions to deal with
the problem.

To begin with, urban expansion and the demand for more agricultural land lead to the destruction of
habitats that house thousands of animals. For example, farmers clear forests to make room for
planting crops and raising livestock, not to mention other logging operations that provide timber and
paper products. Without the trees which offer shelters and food sources, wild creatures will gradually
die out. Doubtlessly, man-made pollution also contributes to the loss of species. In particular,
industrial plants dump sewage and other toxic substances into the water and kill off the fish; similarly,
marine life in the ocean might be completely eradicated in the event of oil spills during the
exploitation and transportation processes .

What’smore it is caused by the over-hunting of human.Excessive hunting is endangering many wild


animals. People use wild animal as material to produce luxurious products which are highly
profitable. The huge amount of money earned from selling these products urged poachers to kill a
massive number of wild animals without caring about environmental effects. The result is that many
wild species disappeared forever and many others are at risk of vanishing. For example, a huge
number of Indochinese Tigers have been killed for their skin to make clothes and their bone to be
used as medicine. After being hunted for many years, this species have been pushed the edge of
extinction in Indochina area.

To conserve natural animals, authorities should establish and strictly enforce laws and regulations on
conserving wild-life. This can be done by issuing bans on hunting, fishing and trading of wild
animals; forming conservation area and establishing ranger forces. Any violation of these laws must
be seriously punished to create a deterring effect in the society. These solutions will enable wild
animals to live and breed in their natural habitat and increase in number again. In Vietnam, killing and
trading tigers is illegal. Anyone who goes against this rule can be sentenced many years in prison. The
strict enforcement of the law created a safe environment for the remaining tigers to live and reduce the
risk of extinction.

In conclusion, the thriving existence of human race can inadvertently result in the death of animal
species for many reasons, but with proper attention and actions, this frightening scenario might be
avoided. We abuse enviroment because we regard it as a commodity belonging to us. When we see it
as a community to which we belong, we may begin to use it with love and respect
