Missy’s whole essay

Topic:Some people think at the age of modern techononlogies,the existence of wild animals do not have any effect on social development.What's your opinion?
Nowadays with the economy and technology develops at a dazzling speed, some species of wild animals have become extinct because the environment that they are living in has changed greatly. As a result of serious pollution, destruction of natural habitats and poaching also can make many wild animals are facing the danger of extinction. For example, with the development of cities, the using of insecticide and serious pollution, their living areas have become narrower and narrower. Many of the wild animals, now are confronted with food crisis. At the same time, man is killing off species just for getting their fur, skin horns, teeth and meat. But some people still think at the age of modern technologies, the existence of wild animals do not have any effect on social development. Thus, preventing them from dying out is a waste of resource. I totally disagree with this claim. The fact is that social development lead to our living environment at the same time is getting more polluted.
This essay will discuss whether there are some impaction for the existence of wild animals. I will say advantage about protect the wild animals and disadvantage about government will waste resourcese to protect the wild animals and so on, and also give some evidences to support the arguments. I will explain why protect the existence of wild animals is so important.
So ,whether there are some impaction for the existence of wild animals? Human societies is a big natural ecosystem. It’s acquired many basic goods, such as seafood, game animals, fodder, fuelwood, timber, and pharmaceutical products. These goods played an important and familiar role in the economy. As the result, you can know that the existence of wild animals have a big effect on social economy development. Others, for example, the extinction of hawks, a rat-eating bird seen in many regions, will result in the rapid propagation of rats. And rats, further will destroy the prairies and threaten the other animals like gazelles, zebras and others, who live on grass and green lands. The coexistence of animals and human beings creates perfect harmony and brings about the vividness to our planet.(1)
It’s hard to imagine what our world would be like without animals. Certainly our diet cannot be without meat. There are living stocks, which can provide us with sufficient and nutritious produce. Therefore, we need to resort to wild animals, especially the endangered ones. So protect the wild animals is so important for us. But there also have some advantages and disadvantages about protect the wild animals.
For advantages, protect the wild animals can sustain ecosystem services. For example, global warming due to Arctic began to melt, Polar bears maybe will eat human beings if there is no place to live and no other food to eat. Thus, to protect animals is to protect our living environment. Protect the wild animals are also good for education. This not only can educate for people know how to realize the wild animals but also can educate in some medical field. On the other hand, I think the protection of wild animals is a good way for culture communications between different countries. For examples, panda as China's national treasure have repeatedly carried out cultural exchanges with other countries. According to Japanese media, Tokyo decided to early next year loan a pair of giant pandas from china zoo, they are ready to feed and look forward to breed giant pandas in the zoo. Finally, protect the wild animals is also good for the economic development.
For disadvantages, protect the existence of wild animals must will waste resources and too much money. Government believes that if you want to protect those endangered wild animals need to find more great places to build can be used for venues or facilities for their survival. This also will inevitably lead to waste of resources and large amounts of money. Secondly, there is a name ‘Disease risks of wild animals translocations’. For example an animal may harbor a parasite with no ill effects; whereas, the same parasite in a different host species, or in the same host species in a different physiological state, may cause disease. This means stop some existence of wild animals maybe will due to the transmission of disease.(2)
In conclusion, in my opinion, I think we are certain that if current trends continue. humanity will dramatically alter virtually all of Earth's remaining natural ecosystems within a few decades. As the result, in order to protect our resources of ecology, people should realize that the loss of any species is at least the loss of source of knowledge and a source natural beauty .Many wild animals are facing the danger of extinction, because the environment that they are living in has changed greatly. So only if human beings take some drastic measures can wild animals be preserved. We can take some measures to avoid the waste of resources and protected wild animals. For example, first to find out what animals living near you are listed on the endangered species list. Spend some time learning about the animals and what their preferred habitat is. Secondly, buy environmentally friendly goods. Choose non-toxic cleaners and lawn care items that won't pollute streams, rivers or oceans. Avoid any products that have been made from threatened or endangered animals. Buy foods and goods that are made from materials that do not harm endangered animals or their habitat. For example, look for organic chocolate, coffee or cotton clothing that is grown without cutting down rainforests or destroying habitat. Thirdly, Create or restore habitat for endangered animals. You can volunteer to help with projects worldwide designed to reestablish habitat. In your own backyard, plant a butterfly garden, use native plants and trees and let "wild" areas grow to provide habitat and food. Finally, join a local, national or global conservation organization. Some organizations focus on one particular endangered animal while others focus on broad efforts for all endangered species. You can "adopt" an animal through these organizations, which makes a great gift idea as well.(3) If you can do that to protect the existence of wild animals that means you will protect our live environment. So to protect animals is to protect our live environment.
