How does extinction effect humans?

Answer 1

Food chains and ecosystems are like a web. For example, a certain type of butterfly in Africa feeds on the dung of leopards. If the leopards die out, the butterflies will either die out or become weaker. If that happens, animals that eat those butterflies also are affected.

Many, many creatures on earth are endangered for so many reasons, Pollution, Hunting, etc. But eventually, if too many species become extinct, humans may also die out. If cows, pigs, sheep and other meat sources die out, what would we eat? We need protein, which is found in meat and fish to be healthy. Also, if cows and goats died, what dairy products would we eat? We need all these spectacular, wonderful species to live, as all of them connect together, and to us. Break to many parts of Earth's web, and that will be the end.

Hope i didn't scare you too much. But, anyway, this is all true. Please think about it and try your best to save planet earths biodiversity.

Answer 2

Extinction can affect humans by disrupting ecosystems that provide essential services like clean air, water, and food. It can also lead to the loss of potential sources of medicine and other valuable resources. Ultimately, human activities that contribute to extinction can have long-term consequences for our own well-being and survival.

Answer 3

Animal extinction negatively impacts the environment in many different ways. Animals are often used in farming and even in the pharmaceutical industry. With many species going extinct, food and medication may become harder to come by for humans.

Answer 4

it can effects us because if that animal goes extinct the animal that relies on that food source either dies or adapts to another food source. but still lots of other animals will be affected by the extinction of one animal, for example the fish die so the penguins die and the seal dies and the polar bear dies and the ecosystem will get out of control because we need all the animals in the world tobalance each other out or deer would over run towns if wolves didnt eat them.

Answer 5

Well you know that every animal has some type of advantage on the earth for example farm animals give milk and eggs etc sea creatures such as sharks are known as sweepers of the sea and so on.so if the extinction of these animals is increased the world would no longer have natural workers (except the erosion decomposotion etc).

Answer 6

When an animals become extinct, their relationship with other organisms or animals, might cause them to become extint, due to relationship destruction.

Foods and area will then be exploited by other animals or organisms.

Answer 7

Extinction decreases the reproductive power of a biodiversity. The extinction affects the predator-prey relationship, decreasing the predator and increasing the prey, affecting the ecosystem balance.

Answer 8

Extinction of other organisms affect the whole food chain and throw it out of balance.The damage soon works its way up the food to chain to us humans.

Answer 9

The food chain will change as some animals become extinct and then other animals won't be able to get food

Answer 10

Extinction contributes to the loss of natural food sources.
