What responsibilities do we as humans have to other species?
Humans have a large responsibility to other creatures, we have the technology, intelligence, and research available to us that can save endangered species. Moreover, human beings have played a large role in the demise and endangerment of many of the endangered and extinct species. It is important to take care of and conserve ours and their habitats. There is actually an Endangered Species Act (1973), Wilderness Act, Endangered Species Conservation Act (1969), and Endangered Species Preservation Act (1966) each had been amended to meet criteria so it would not jeopardize the plant and animal life. That is why today we have the Wildlife Reserves and National Parks to minimize conflict with recreational fisheries and other species.
Differentiaate between endangered species and threatened species?
Threatened means that the animal is vulnerable to extinction and the population of the animal is declining. (ex: Certain species of whale population are being threatened.) Endangered means that the animal will soon be extinct if nothing is done about it. Some endangered animals are being bred in captivity until their numbers increase enough to be released back in the wild. (ex: Bald Eagles are an endangered species of bird. Pandas are an endangered species of bear.) Extinct means that the animal has completely died out and there aren't any left of this species. (ex: Dinosaurs are an extinct species of reptile. Dodo is an extinct bird.) Here's a visual: Threatened-------------> Endangered---------------> Extinct
