Why we should save animals
Do you like animals? Well I know I do. But sadly they are disappearing from the world as their numbers are dramatically decreasing. By the end of this speech, I am going to convince you that we should save animals. Animals are great and I strongly believe that we should save them because they are just like us humans: they eat and sleep just like us humans but we don't treat them the same way. I think we should. Firstly all animals fit into an ecosystem and if one type of animal dies than a wide range will die. Secondly they make the world a better place giving us humans amazing sights to see, they bring great joy to our lives and lastly humans rely on animals for a wide range of food and health too. Think about it, what would we do without animals?
All animals fit into an ecosystem
Firstly, all animals fit into an ecosystem. An ecosystem includes all of the living things plants, animals and organisms in a particular area, interacting with each other, and also with their nonliving environments like the weather, earth, sun, soil, climate and atmosphere. Ecosystems can of any size and certain ecosystems occur in certain places. Each ecosystem has its own community.
If one type of animal, take insects for example, becomes extinct then spiders, wasps, ants, scorpions, ground beetles, centipedes, shrews, hedgehogs, and mice and many more animals will become extinct because they need insects for their daily meals. And if all of those animals become extinct because they didn’t have anything to eat, then their predators will have nothing to eat and become extinct and it would keep going on and on forever. So we have to try our hardest not to let any animals die because just one animal dying can cause entire ecosystems to collapse. This is bad because there will be barely any animals left in the world. So now you know how important it is to save animals because just one animal dying can cause a wide range of animals to die.
I believe that animals make the world a better place to live in and bring great joy to our lives. How many times have you looked at a baby animal and said, “Awww! It’s so cute!” Animals make planet Earth a fascinating, varied and special place to be. People travel far and wide to observe unique and beautiful animal species. For example, each year thousands of tourists travel to Africa to go on safaris or go to wildlife parks. People love to see animals’ unique physical features, how they communicate with their kind, the noises they make, how they move and how they behave in their natural habitat. Have you ever been to the Auckland zoo? I’m sure many of you have! This is because the zoo has enclosures that are home to different varieties of animals from all over the world. On any given day, you will see children at the zoo reacting with joy, delight, wonder and amazement at the many creatures they see. Imagine a world without animals…..what a boring, horrible place it would be!
And last, but certainly not least, animals help humans to live and survive on Earth. For example cows are very important because we need cows to provide us with milk and we use milk for a lot of things. Most importantly milk gives us nutrients and nutrients are essential for a healthy lifestyle. Dogs help blind people get around with their sense of sight and smell. Also some animals give medicine. For example, the oil from the liver of the cod fish is rich in omega-3 which helps fight against ageing. Also earthworms release their chemicals into the soil and the nutrients taken up by the roots of plants helps them grow and develop. Bees also pollinate crops such as broccoli, cranberries, almonds and apples. Without pollination seeds cannot grow and crops and fruits can not be produced. We want to eat, right? So now you know how important animals are in the world.
To sum it up, I think animals are really important and I hope you think the same now after all the evidence I have given you. Firstly animals all fit into an ecosystem which means that if one animal dies, all of them will. Secondly they bring great joy to our lives and make the world a better place and lastly we depend on animals to live. So do something to help animals. Every step counts.
