Habitat fragmentation is detrimental to a species’ sustainability in the given environment and the ecosystems biodiversity‚ and can oftenly drive species into extinction. Habitats that were continuous at one point have been divided into many isolated sections due to humans clearing the natural vegetation of an area for agriculture‚ rural development‚ or urbanization. As a result of habitat fragmentation there is

Another reason animal abuse should be abolished is that animals die and become endangered species. “Breeds of horses face endangerment and extinction because of animal abuse.” (www.horsetradition.com).

Castor canadensis‚ otherwise known as the North American Beaver‚ is a keystone species on the verge of extinction. It lives in the northern regions of North America‚ specifically in Canada and the United States. Its status on the IUCN red list is endangered. This species is very beneficial‚ but is racing extinction due to people not seeing the importance it does to both humans and the ecosystem alike. The benefits of these beavers are that they prevent water floods and regulate water flow which

lot of worth to it. My professor for both of the classes I took proposed we take these two problems and make it into a solution. Humans over-catch native species. This becomes a problem because they could lead the native species’ population to extinction in that habitat. However‚ that same problem can become the solution to a different problem. If instead of catching native species people would catch invasive species‚ it could fix the problem. If people found a way to make

The purpose of this piece formal writing is to inform the scientists that are coming very close to making this happen‚ about how de-extinction can be good and bad for the future world. This piece of writing should be sent to scientists that are going to do this and it should also be put on science websites that have other pieces of writing like this. De-extinction is when someone creates an organism that is the same or similar to an extinct species. Cloning has been the most common that scientists
