Wild animals have no place in the 21st century, so protecting them is a waste of resources. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Many species of animals have lost their habitats due to human activities over the last decades. Personally, I completely disagree with the idea that it is a waste of money to protect them.
There are several reasons why I believe that money spent on wildlife is not a waste. Firstly, zoos are good sources of education, especially for children. Young pupils are now able to observe many different types of animals with their own eyes and by touching them. Without the protection provided by zoos and keeping them in safe places, children would only be able to see them in textbooks or on television. Secondly, human activity has a huge impact on natural habitats, and therefore we are also responsible for them. Provided that domestic and industrial waste has been pumped into rivers and seas, and many areas of woodland have been deforested, it has led to enormous numbers of aquatic life and wildlife dying out. This has interrupted natural cycles and devastated food chains. Therefore, we should at least try to preserve them no matter what.
In addition, rainforests are essential for human survival as trees produce oxygen and absorb carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide in particular is detrimental to human as it could kill us. However, many areas of rainforest are being deforested for industrial reasons, and this activity will eventually harm us due to a lack of oxygen and the excessive amount of carbon dioxide. For example, Amazon produce oxygen that covers almost 70% of the Earth and if we continue to destroy the tress, we might not be able to survive in the future.
For the reasons mentioned above, I believe that we humans need to allocate out resources to protecting wildlife.

Oh my mistake not to read the
Oh my mistake not to read the question carefully. Thanks for pointing it out and its importance. Next time I will be more alert.
I disagree with the notion
I disagree with the notion that wild animals are redundant in the current century and
therefore we need not waste our precious resources in protecting them. I believe that the
conservation of these species should be our top priority as they are our most precious
resources. In the following paragraphs I shall put forth my arguments to support my views.
The most important reason for saving wild animals is that they are part of our ecosystem.
Every species of wildlife plays a role to maintain the balance of life on Earth. Thus, the loss
of any species can affect us directly or indirectly. Let us consider species to be like a brick in
the foundation of a building. We can probably lose one or two or a dozen bricks and still
have a standing house. But by the time we have lost 20 per cent of species, we are going to
destabilize the entire structure. That's the way ecosystems work.
Secondly, wild animals provide many valuable substances such as medicine and fur. The
horn of the rhinoceros has medicinal value and the fur of the mink is very valuable. The
recreational viewing of animals at zoos is also a source of revenue. Thus, the financial value
of wild species is important to the economies of many nations.
Finally, wild animals have aesthetic appeal. They are beautiful creatures of nature and are a
part of our bio-diversity. Their beautiful and mysterious life has enchanted mankind since
the dawn of evolution. Scientists have been awed by observing their behavior. Such study
has helped scientists understand how the human body functions and why people behave as
they do. Scientists have also gained medical knowledge by studying the effect of many drugs
on these animals.
In conclusion, the protection of wild animals in the 21st century is by no means a waste of
resources. In fact it should be the most important global priority today. I pen down by a
quotation – “Scientists know we must protect species because they are working parts of our
life-support
