At the rate that poaching is transpiring, elephants will be extinct by the year 2020 (Mosbergen). The population of elephants has drastically decreased. Ivory-seeking poachers have killed 100,000 African elephants in just three years, which is roughly 100 elephants everyday. This ecological impact is immense, and if nothing is done to stop poaching, elephants will become extinct before we know it. Poaching is a serious problem, especially in Africa and Asia and it takes place for commercial…

Southeast Asia is home to some of the world’s most biodiverse organisms, but it is also home to some of the most threatened species and tropical forests (Bateman 2010). The lush tropical habitats that once covered the area are rapidly decreasing and so are the organisms that thrive in that environment. The Panthera tigris sumatrae, more commonly known as the Sumatran Tiger, is the smallest surviving tiger subspecies left in the world (WWF 2017). Found only on the Indonesian Island of Sumatra,…

and animal species are killed, or even put to the brink of extinction, due to Amazon Deforestation. “Forests are complex ecosystems that affect almost every species on the planet. When they are degraded, it can set off a devastating chain of events both locally and around the world.” (Bradford) By deforesting the amazon, many animals are losing their homes and food sources. 240,000 miles of Amazon Rainforests are taken down each year for human supplies. Many animals and different species live in…

People are desperate for money and jobs but that is not a reason to destroy all of their natural resources. They are using natural resources at a rate higher than ever before. Ecosystems in Latin america are dying off because the things that they need to survive are being sold as profit or there homes are being turned into crop…

endangered, meaning they are threatened with extinction. The rest of the estimated 8,700,000 species on Earth have yet to be assessed, so the number of threatened species is significantly larger than the current estimate. In the 1970s, many environmental laws were passed to curb the mass extinction of species including the Endangered Species Act of 1973 or ESA. This act has put many laws and regulations in to action to limit and reverse the negative impact that humans have on the environment and…

endangered birds or small animals and plant habitats and foods for those animals so they have a place to live. People can fund corporations that help protect wildlife. Endangered species are a problem because no animal should be on their way to extinction when we should care for the earth that we live on, many endangered species are because of careless hunters that poach and take more than allowed. These animals on the endangered species list play key roles within their habitats and…
