180 Words1 Page

Do you think vampire bats should be saved or killed? Firstly, Francisco Oliva continuously battles against threats to his cattle, but the bats are the biggest threat so far. For instance, he lost 10 calves to anemia caused by successive bloodletting's by the bats. Therefore, the bats dependency on the cattle for their food source is causing the cows to die.

Therefore, if there’s any possibility of bat-based research producing life changing cure or medicines we should let them live. Thirdly, I agree with the scientists, the bats should be saved.

    Societies and cultures such as our own can only advance if we learn from previous mistakes, in this case I am talking about extinct species of wildlife. In the past, people have killed a lot of animals in large numbers as they deemed fit for things that include a stable food source, resource, and to affect other peoples as with the bison. Bolen and Robinson made excellent points on this issue about how Americans waged war on Bison as an attempt to take away the Indian’s food source and how that is why the mighty bison is so scarce today (Bolen and Robinson 10). The bison and other examples in the text are great examples of Europeans overkilling and driving species of animals to extinction for various reasons, but it is very important. If we
