Aquatic animals, land animals, birds and plants species are getting extinct one by one or at the verge of extinction.
This is due to human activities and natural disaster. Human activities include deforestation for globalisation. Deforestation cuts down the tress in the forest. This causes many animals to lose their homes and food supplies. Therefore, many animals die and some are at the verge of extinction. The burning of trees also causes global warming. Global warming causes the sea ice to melt. The melting of sea ice causes artic animal like the beluga whale to be unable to hunt for its prey. The emperor penguins are also unable to mate to produce more offspring. If this continues, they may all face extinction.
Natural disaster includes storm, earthquake and drought. It is the natural disaster like storm that destroy the nesting habitat of the leatherback turtle. Drought has caused quiver trees to lose its population. If nothing is done to prevent the loss of population of quiver trees, it will soon face extinction.
Proctecting the endangered species are important because if they become extinct, we can never reproduce them. In order for them not to go extinct, everyone should play a part in protecting them.
