    (Introduction) January 27, 2010, Congress confirmed the Sawtooth National Recreation Area and Jerry Peak Wilderness Additions Act H.R.1138 that allows for maintenance and management of Sawtooth National Park to ensure that the park is well taken care of. This also helps the park rangers to properly manage the livestock, insects, fires and the overall care of the park. The bill allows for the USDA to properly manage the interior of the park, and keep it from wasting away, which also requires donations and funds for the park to keep its ongoing appearance. The National Parks and Wildlife Conservation Act of 1975 created national parks so that the public could learn about and enjoy nature’s resources.

    Humanity’s relationship with nature periodically shifts between symbiotic and parasitic. We feed off nature in order to survive, and in exchange, we carefully monitor how our behavior affects the environment and the organisms within it. Responsibility is the price we pay for dominance and sentience. To help fulfill this duty, the United States government established the Wilderness Act in 1954 with the intention of becoming passive “guardians” of nature instead of encroaching “gardeners.” Countless acres of wild lands, henceforth referred to as the “wilderness,” were declared off-limits to American industry and placed under federal oversight; the United States hoped that at least some small portion of nature could be free from the influence…

    While some laws, such as the 1973 Endangered Species Act and the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972 have worked on animal conservation, humans as a whole need to feel more inclined to help the animals in need in any way they could. There are laws and rules all over the world for the protection of species, but some people, such as poachers, simply ignore these laws and continue to pursue the endangered creatures.

    Our constant need to build and expand has put our presence in places where it doesn’t belong. When roads or dams are built, habitats are split up. When this occurs, animals get separated from their eggs or offspring and when a species is introduced to a new environment, they die off because the environment does not contain enough resources to withhold them. (Enzor, 2018) Also mentioned earlier, the emissions released to the ozone when trees are absent, harm it and contribute to global warming.…
