Why is animal extinction a problem?

Answer 1

because once the animals die out, other animals that depend on them for food or symbiosis will die out and the animals that depend on THEM die out etc. also the food source of the extinct animal will flourish and overpopulate, causing the food source for it to die out. It is overall a long and complicated proccess

Answer 2

The basic reason is that we don't know exactly how Nature is put together. Losing one species might influence another, then another, then another - and there's no telling where that chain might end.

Another reason is that it's a bit selfish to let species go extinct.

It'd be quite embarrassing to have to tell the kids or the grandkids that "we used to have these magnificent beasts called Polar bears but we thought it was so fun to drive even to places where we could have walked, so they all died out".

Answer 3
