Steemit Engagement Challenge S12W5 | Preservation of the planet: Animals in extinction.
There are some causes that are encouraging the extinction of animals I am describing below.
Loss of habitat
Loss of habitat aur fragmentation of natural habitats is one of the leading and primary cause because there are many human activities which includes deforestation urbanization etc that are resulting in the loss of natural habitats for living organisms like animals and other species.
Changes in climate
Changes in climate that we are seeing and noticing day by day have most significant effect on different species as well as on ecosystems because definitely when there would be disturbences in temperatures then it would disrupt the delicate balance of ecosystems and make it too much tough for the survival of certain species.
Illegal wildlife trading and poaching
It is threatening for many of the species that if there is any illegal wild life trading and poaching. there are many people who are hunting animals for the sake of their skin, bones,horns and other important body parts which they can sale in market at high rates. Unsustainable exploitation like this is a leading cause in the decline of species and extinction of vulnerable species.
Pollution
There are different kind of pollution including air water soil and noise and all these are gatri mental for wildlife because chemical pollutants plastic waste and other things like this are responsible for the contamination of habitats which can harm animals directly and indirectly in their food chains in many ways.
These are the causes which are most important because they interact with each other and make the conservation of endangered species are complex challenge so there are different efforts that have to be made world wide for aggressing issues like protection of endangered species or animals.
I am going to explain a list of animals about which I know that they are at risk of extinction so here I am sharing few examples below 👇
Amur Leopard 🐆
Amur leopard are one of the biggest cats in the world and they are one of the most endangered species and almost hundred individuals are remaining in the wild. These are the leopards that are found in Russia east and North Eastern China. These are facing threats from the loss of habitat and decline of their prey species.
Philippine eagles
Philippine eagle are one of the largest eagles in the world and they are very rare and they are facing habitat loss due to cooking down of forest as well as hunting and trapping as well as they are also almost individuals left is very important that we have to make conservation efforts for their survival.
Sumatran tigers🐅
These are the tigers which is the last surviving tiger sub specie situated in Indonesia and it is also endangered critically due to fragmentation of habitat as well as due to illegal wild life trade and they are also estimated to be very fever and almost 400 individuals according to my research are remaining in wild.
African alephants 🐘
There are also significant facts on African elephants particularly about poaching so illegal trade of African elephant is a leading cause of decline in there population that's why anti poaching measures are necessary for their survival and conservation.
That was few examples I have explained about animals about which I have an idea that they are at risks of extinction so there is a need to raise awareness and to implement certain measures for conservation of these species survival.
There are different measures that can be implemented for the preventions of animal extinction who are at threat of different kind.
Conservation of habitat
It is very crucial that we should conserve the habitat for the betterment of endangered species. We can do different things like we can maintain protected areas we can make national parks as well as there should be wile de life reserves where these animals have an opportunity to thriving without any disturbance and it also include the restoring and rewinding the degraded habitats for providing suitable living conditions for species which are at extinction.
Anti-poaching efforts
As I have explained that one of the most significant threat to many endangered species is poaching that's why there is a need to implement anti-poaching efforts. These activities and these efforts involves the increase in petrols in vulnerable areas as well as the employment of well trained rangers and use of technology is like cameras as well as imposing different penalties for poachers.
Wildlife trafficking control
Wildlife trafficking control could be a very effective way for prevention of habitat and species which are at the risk of extinction and their should be an effective tracking of those who trade illegally the body parts of these endangered species and if there would be strengthening in the law enforcement and border control would be improve then it would be much better for control of illegal wildlife trading and their body parts.
Community education
It is very important to engage local communities with each other for the conservation efforts and then there would be involvement of communities with each other for the conservation of habitats then it would rays awareness about the importance of biodiversity and it would be a great way to foster a sense of responsibility for the protection of wildlife and endangered species so educational programs are very important in this case.
If I were to be calling in the preservation of species which are at the risk of extinction then there would be several responsibilities to which I would love to work for the betterment of habitat and survival of species.
- It would be my first choice to work as a wild life rehabilitator and it gives me personal calm so this would be my first priority.
- I would directly like to contribute in the rescue rehabilitation and release of endangered species for my full feeling because I have been always passionate about love of animals and their well being.
- I would like to provide safe environment to animals by providing them nutritional and medical care those which are injured and those who are hungry.
- I would try my best to make these animals to recover very soon and I would try to regain there maximum strength as they have before and once I would be successful in making them strengthen like before then I would like to release them into their habitat in which they want to live.
It would be very fulfillling angry boarding for me if I would have an opportunity in the contribution of conservation of endangered species.
The causes you've mentioned, particularly the loss of habitat, climate change, and illegal wildlife trading, are indeed significant threats to various species. It's essential to address these issues collectively to protect our planet's biodiversity and prevent the extinction of vulnerable species. Conservation efforts, awareness campaigns, and strict regulations are some of the ways we can combat these challenges and ensure a better future for our natural world.
There is a rule of economics that states that when supply decreases, price increases.
If we consider that establishing more rigorous laws against poaching will stop the damage being done to the species, it would be a utopian thought, although it could curb this practice a little.
Tougher laws will increase the price of hunting endangered animals. There may be fewer hunters, but the business will be more lucrative.
Perhaps it would work better to establish laws that deprive people of their freedom who have animals hanging on the walls of their houses.
The named causes, my dear @khursheedanwar, are all produced by the hands of human beings.
It seems that it is the human being himself, the greatest plague on the earth, capable of destroying his environment without considering the risks that must be faced afterwards, and has come to have, as a diversion, the hunting and killing of some species to have them hanging on the wall.
I wish you the best in this initiative.
Correcto amigo, la gente no se da cuenta de lo importante que es la conservación de el hábitat y de lo angustiante que es la extinción de tan preciosos animales, diste muchas sugerencias para contribuir con la causa y eso es algo muy bueno, Gracias por compartir tu opinión y mostrar los hechos, hoy en día el resto de personas necesitan leer esto.
Saludos amigo @khursheedanwar el planeta ha sufrido cambios climaticos ocasionados por el homnre, unido a esto los cambios naturales.
Se unen las causas como el comercio ilegal y la contaminacion siendo de mayor peso en la extincion de animales.
Ha realizado una buena participacion amigo.
Lamento informarle que no se encuentra en ningun club por lo que no debe usar la etiqueta club5050.
Dios le bendiga.

Hello my friend.
The loss of animal habitat has its cause in man, precisely because of uncontrolled logging and deforestation and the lack of forceful measures by government agencies.
Climate change has been a cause for a long time and it is necessary, the awareness of world leaders, so that there are mechanisms to prevent the most powerful companies from prolonged pollution of the environment, which have caused heavy floods and droughts that have affected the animal habitat.
Happy and blessed afternoon. Success.
Holaa sr amigo los cambios en el clima y la contaminacion estan haciendo que muchos animales se encuentren en extincion 😪 animales no podremis volver a ver y es triste hay que tomar conciencia rapido para salvarlos 😍suerte bye.
I strongly agree with you on the change of climate. Sometimes, the fumes we send to the atmosphere can cause a change in climate thereby displacing or even killing some of the birds that are not immune to these impurities.
Best of luck to you.
Dear brother @khursheedanwar, I am very happy to see your post in the engagement contest where you have presented us the list of some extinct animals from your country. You mentioned tigers, leopards, Philippine eagles and African elephants are on the verge of extinction in your country which is a very bad thing for a country's biodiversity. We all know more or less how important these animals are in sustaining our biodiversity. But the best thing is that your country has taken steps to save these animals from extinction. I appreciate your presentation.
El tráfico ilegal de algunas especies ha sido una de las mayores causas de la extinción de los animales. Hacen falta medidas muchos más severas para estas prácticas; todos tenemos derecho a vivir en nuestro hábitat sin que nos sea modificado.
Éxitos en el concurso.
