It has been ironically said that whatever living thing that humans touch is domed. This was not the case with the mysterious extinction of such species as huge dinosaurs and flightless dodo birds that had been wiped out due to natural processes rather than human behaviors. Although what happened could have been inevitable, what people are doing now to endangered animal species should be evitable.
Is the "great dying" of many animal species as inevitable as fate itself? The extinction of dinosaurs millions years ago, or dodos hundreds of years ago, remains the greatest mystery. It is believed by some scientists that about 99.9% of animal species might have ceased to exist as a result of natural processes (commonly associated with the evolution). This implies that human beings did not get involved in the "crime" and, for that matter, they may rightfully deny any wrong doing. However, this does not mean it is not necessary for people at this age to try and prevent those species near dying out from completely disappearing because of human activities. Even though it is natural processes of animal species to become extinct, there is no reason why people should not let animals live in wildlife.
Harmful human activity to the fauna (and the flora) is evitable, of course. Given that wild animals in the natural habitat may not have options to decide on their own destiny, human behavior should not become their fate. It is time to think about the benefits of biodiversity in which all living things can co-exist. Threatening the very survival of endangered animal species are excessive logging and illegal hunting, not to mention man-made disasters such as air and water pollution. Conserving Nature's biodiversity should therefore be the ultimate human responsibility. There is an increasing public awareness to protect wild animals; but not enough is done to avoid the evitable.
Nothing perhaps could be done to prevent the inevitable, but many things could be done to stop the evitable from happening to animal species on the point of extinction. What happened to dinosaurs and dodos once upon a time may be regarded as inevitable natural processes. Now, all people should seriously save Nature for Nature's sake; otherwise, human beings as species are likely to be doomed as well.
