Endangered Species

[Omega]

Some people don't want to protect endangered species and in fact are fine with losing them forever.

What's wrong with some people?

I can maybe understand if it's for natural causes but... :eek3:

There are arguments for both sides. I teach science, last year my kids had to write short papers for both sides.

It was very interesting conversation. The room was pretty split when it came to their own personal opinions.

Because building homes, resorts and making money is more important than protecting Gopher Tortoises and Indigo Snakes in florida.

Collect and raise live bearers, many are becoming extinct in the wild while the thrive via collectors. This is the way to go. Try breeding Goodeids, many are endangered in the wild and are a inexpensive fish to buy.

Well, I don't know about that. It certainly teaches kids to think outside the box and debate, but at the same time it reaffirms terrible values. I mean, there's always two sides to everything, but usually one of those sides is wrong.
