There are more than thirty million

species of animals in the world.

We know about and can give names

to about only one million of them.

Every year some of these species

disappear and we will never see them

again. With thirty million different

species on earth, does anyone of us

care about losing one or two?

Different people give different answers

to this question. However, more and

more people are saying, “Of course,

each one of them is important.” Why

do people think that?

One answer is this: animals make our

world a richer and more interesting

place for us to live in.

Secondly, animals help us in many

important ways. They give us meat to

eat, milk to drink and we can make

things to wear from their coats.

Scientists have learned a lot from

animals and this helps us to understand

people better. Doctors take things

from animals, alive or dead, to help

ill people.

Thirdly, it is natural for us to protect

animals because we are animals too.

Many of these living things are

in danger. Without our help, a lot more

animals are going to die.

People and animals live in the same

world. Our land is their land; our trees

are their trees; our rivers are their

rivers. We want to protect animals

because we are protecting our world

at the same time.
