There are several types of species of animals that are starting to either become endangered or are already extinct because of the human race. Humans hunt these animals not because they are trying to feed their families or because they are terrorizing things. They are hunting them as a game. You could say its a challenge on who can get what. So much of this has started to endanger the species or totally wipe them out. This has been going on for several hundred years. Back when the pioneers where hunting all those bison and nearly took them all out and there were millions of them, but over the years hunting them heavily has put a huge dent in their population and nearly wiped them out completely.

So why would people want to shoot these animals? They shoot these animals because of currency and a name for themselves. Most rich people have poachers hunt the animals or they do it themselves for excitement. If they don’t hunt them themselves, then they will hire a poacher to do it. The poacher will receive a large amount of currency if they bring back the right animal and the right size. The bison aren’t the only ones that had a big impact on them. In Indonesia, there are below 80 Sumatran Rhinos left. There numbers are only that small because poachers were hunting them for their horn. There are two reasons that they are hunting them for, One reason is the Vietnamese used it for a traditional medicine. The other reason is that if you had a Rhino Horn it showed a symbol of wealth or success.

Sixty years after the extirpation of wolves in the Northern Rockies and Great Plains of America, biologist and ecologist in Yellowstone National Park reintroduced wolves into a declining ecosystem that once thrived during their presence. The reintroduction brought immense controversy into the West and continues to stir outrage among anti-wolf groups. These anti-wolf supporters argue wolves are ruthless predators that cause destruction to natural environments and livestock. Conversely wolf advocates and scientists suggest that wolves are a keystone species that are essential to the natural regulation of our Western ecosystems. Although pro and anti-wolf advocates can agree that wolves have an effect on livestock, ungulate populations and ecosystems,

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

De-Extinction, a interesting topic that most people don’t have an opinion on. De-extinction is a process which uses the DNA of extinct animals and use a surrogate mother and father to bring back an extinct animal. Scientists are working on ways to bring back animals such as wooly mammoths and maybe even dinosaurs. This is a very hopeful topic from different points of view, and a very scary topic from others.
