First of all, human beings are the main cause of animal extinction. We are producing pollution which affects the environment. For example, releasing waste water into the river and the sea, the leaking of petroleum from the ship into the sea, and air-pollution from factories. Those factors are also related not only to animal extinction but our ability to live comfortably. However we know that we will not be able to live without modern science. It means our life rely on modern science more than expected, so we need to think about what can we do for the animal extinction. I think it is a duty and obligation of everybody to help prevent animal extinction. People must be educated to know about the negative effect like loss of some animal species and the impact on human way of life and a chain of life. For instance, Birds eat insects and insects eat plants and vegetables. If there are fewer birds, there will be a lot of insects. If there are too many insects, insects will eat many plants and vegetable. Then we will not have enough food to eat. Therefore we need to avoid this situation, we have to know what we have done to them and we need to change our life-style.
Secondly, we have been over-hunting, because we do it for our advantage. For example, some animals are for a coat, some animals for medicine especially their fangs and nails. Some of them are as a pet. Some of them are for eating.
