Essay. Endangered animals. TOEFL

 

There are many creatures and living beings in this world. They make the planet a better place to stay. But, unfortunately humankind has been destroying the habitat of these creatures and also killing them. It has made that some animals are becoming endangered. This is not good neither for the animals nor for the planet, the place where we live. I would like to explain my opinion in the subsequent paragraphs.

First, animals make part of a food chain and if some species in this food chain are affected, the whole ecosystem will be degenerate. Every animal in the food chain has a work to do. Some animals eat grass, but others eat those animals. There are animals who eat leftovers and fertilize the soil. Therefore, it is quite important to protect and conserve this chain. For example, the bees have a significant labor. They pollinize the plants so that they can breed. If they became endangered, we could not live in this planet. Hence, we have to protect the nature and make the world a better place for the species.

Secondly, biodiversity is important for humans. Biodiversity is a good indicator to know how well an ecosystem is. Therefore, the endangered animals are fundamental for the ecosystems. In addition, ecosystems provide resources for humans. For instance, Miraflores moor is a strategic ecosystem for my city. It provides us water, the most important resource that we need to live. There are some spectacled bears and cougars in the ecosystem. They indicate how conserved the moor is. Hence, endangered animals are valuable to know the state of an ecosystem.

In conclusion, it is necessary to protect and conserve endangered species. This is because they make part of a food chain and we cannot break it. They also indicate how well an ecosystem is.
