Things You Can Do To Protect Wildlife

In this week, I want to see you one of milions parts of the animal's life. “Protect wildlife habitat” is only a little redaction whose words say that how people influence in anilas's life, and how few animals begin endangered. People have to respect habitat.

Protect Wildlife Habitat

Perhaps the greatest threat that faces many species is the widespread destructio of habitat. Deforestation, farming, over-grazing and development all result in irreversible changes—soil compaction, erosion, desertification, and alteration of local climatic conditions. Such land use practices vastly alter or even eliminate wildlife habitat. In areas where rare species are present, habitat destruction can quickly force a species to extinction.
By protecting habitat, entire communities of animals can be protected together and when communities are kept intact, less conservation intervention is required to ensure species survival. Parks, reserves, and other protected lands are too often the only habitats left untouched by habitat destruction.

Habitat Destruction

Definition: Habitat destruction is the process by which natural habitat is damaged or destroyed to such an extent that it no longer is capable of supporting the species and ecological communities that naturally occur there. It often results in the extinction of species and, as a result, the loss of boidiversity.

Habitat can be destroyed directly by many human activities, most of which involve the clearing of land for other uses such as agriculture, mining, logging, hydroelectric dams and urbanization. Habitat can also be destroyed indirectly by human activities such as pollution, fragmentation, climate change and the introduction of invasive species. Although much habitat destruction can be attributed to human activity, it is not an exclusively man-made phemomenon. Habitat loss also occurs as a result of natural events such as floods, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and climate fluctuations.
Although habitat destruction primarily causes species extinctions, it can also open up new habitat that might provide an environment in which new species can evolve, thus demonstrating the resiliency of life on Earth. Sadly, humans are destroying natural habitats at a rate and on spatial scales that exceed what most species and communities can cope with.
Habitat destruction is fueled by a fast-growing human population. As population increases, humans use more land for agriculture and cities and towns spread out ever-widening areas. The effects of habitat destruction not only impact native species and communities, but they impact human populations as well. Degraded lands are frequently lost to erosion, desertification, and nutrient depletion. Natural disasters such as floods, droughts, outbreak of pests and water pollution take a toll on human populations.
Conservationists often seek to protect habitat in order to save species. For example, the Biodiversity Hotspot program organized by Conservation International protects fragile habitats around the world. Their aim is to protect areas around the globe that contain high concentrations of threatened of species.
Habitat destruction is not the only threat facing wildlife, but it is quite likely the greatest threat. If the depletion of natural habitat around the globe does not slow, mass extinctions are sure to follow.
