HOW GOVERNMENTS COULD PROTECT ENDANGERED SPECIES?

Species’ extinction is not a problem considered by governments although it is deeply troubling for any country’s environment. It is a direct consequence of global warming and climate change, apart from other causes. In addition to the brutal point that is to lose biodiversity, wildlife is a step in the vital natural system which supports the earth capacity to harbor life. For these reasons, it is our mission to take measures so that to stop habitat destruction and help endangered species.

For example, we could call on governments to search for solutions to the problem, ones such as laws are. Sadly, in many countries, mainly of Africa and Asia, hunting wild species is legal or if not, the control over it is really poor. So that, laws are needed, not only to do the hunt forbid but also to give alternatives to the undeveloped countries and people with scarce resources whose only trade is selling wild animals.

Besides, the issue in these countries, and also in the developed ones, is bigger than that. The fact is that animals are losing their habitats because the available countryside is going away. Consequently, many of them are becoming extinct and others are going to the incorrect areas, like the urban spaces or human farms, to get food and survive. That is to say, were protected zones built up, many species would find a home to live and the farmers would not have to kill them.

On balance, the best solution from my perspective is to make special areas because this will be like to kill two birds with one stone, providing habits to the animals and protecting them from hunting.
