Tropical entomologist Terry Erwin’s research supports that there may be as many as 30 million insect species alone in the tropical rainforests (Shiva et al‚ 1991‚ 14). One of the true challenges to biodiversity is that there are so many species that we may be obliterating that we are not even aware exist yet. We are destroying species faster than we can identify them. Extinction and evolution are a normal part of the life cycle on Earth. Of all

Biodiversity Essay Does encaging the animals in such places as zoo and aquarium be clarified as preserving biodiversity? There are two sides to this issue. Main points that support the idea of keeping the animals in cages that often come up are zoos are able to provide protection and they can increase the population of those species who are endangered (Hurley‚ J). Some important points that are against the idea of encaging the animals include the animals develop abnormal behaviours and they believe

pollution and invasive alien species. Biodiversity loss is responsible for destabilizing ecosystems because it weakens their natural cycles‚ reducing the ecosystem’s productivity. It has impacted both agricultural and pharmaceuticals industries due to their heavy dependence on the environment‚ resulting in a loss of profit and more importantly‚ an increased scarcity of food and medicine. Biodiversity loss is occurring at up to 1‚000 times
