Amphibian Crises is getting worse

In this article, “Major Initiative Proposed To Address Amphibian Crises”, the author explains that amphibian extinction and declines are getting worse every day. According to scientists, 32 percent of all amphibian species are endangered as well as threatened. Amphibians play an important role in the ecosystem as well as they have ecological ripple effects. Amphibians are sensitive animals that need protection against ultraviolet radiation, pollutants, pesticides, habitat loss, invasive species and fungal diseases. There are many programs that are being carried on in order to protect and recover the amphibian, such as training, monitoring, salvage operations, disease management, captive breeding as well as other efforts. There are a lot of concerns about the amphibian disappearance. They can disappear in six months. A lot of amphibians have disappeared in North and South America, Europe, Asia, and Africa. It is necessary to create laws and policies that contribute to the protection of the amphibian’s species in order to save some of them.

In many places in the world people do not care about amphibians. After a while this kind of animals is going to disappear, and to solve these problems, we need to protect them, because they have heart and soul and we need to save them from the pollution. There are many ways to protect amphibians, namely stop hurting the environment, helping them propagate, and being eating them.
First, because of what is happening in the world today by global warming and pollution, day by day we are going to lose amphibians, and to protect these animals we need to stop hurting the environment by cutting trees and leaving the damages without cleaning them. This damage can kill large numbers and decrease the level of amphibians’ species. However, to protect amphibians’ species we need to take care by making the amphibians’ area in good condition, not collecting them for fun, and avoiding killing them, so they can live better.

Second, we are losing many kinds of species, which means we need to make them become more and more by making them live in good area that makes them have sex to help them propagate, because many kinds of amphibians have disappeared. So we need to make them have a strong species, we can save amphibians from disappearing. Moreover, some people have asked how could we make them grow? They usually live in the sea or in the land, and they do not have enough food to eat, and many of them have disappeared because of the high temperature of sea or lands. Actually, we can help amphibians if we at least can move them to the places that have low temperature. Another solution is to build a clinic that takes care of amphibians.

Finally, in many countries people like to eat amphibians. On the other hand, other countries like to collect them for sale or for fun, and some amphibians we can use to get medicine from to cure some human disease. Unfortunately, if we do not do something to stop these problems we will lose animals that play a real serious role in our ecosystem, and we will face real problems that affect human life.

In conclusion, pollution and global warming are very important issues we should take care of because these affect not only human beings but also amphibians and the environment. I hope people really care about animals the same as they care about human life. We need to feel amphibians as one serious part in our life. We can be happy if there are many amphibians trying every single day to fight to survive, and stay alive.
