God has not created them without purpose| save wild life !

Why should we preserve wild life and conserve forests? 

To feed the growing population and to provide them shelter we need more land for agriculture, housing and industries. Moreover the wild beasts and birds destroy our crops. The wild beasts also pose a threat to our domestic animals and livestock. Sometimes even they pose a threat to human beings also. Why then should we spend our money and resources in protecting lions , tigers , elephants, crocodiles, cranes,swans , snakes and musk deer? 

We have to protect them as they are an integral part of nature and no other animal or bird affects nature expect man. The wild birds, animals,insects and reptiles help to maintain a balance in nature. They help in the conservation of environment. God has not created them without purpose. Man himself if IS also an animal. He is more rational,intelligent and social than other but basically he is a beast. So our kinship with other animals is a long affair. So the extinction of some species of animal is sure to affect ecology & quality of our life Negatively. We depend on trees and animals and birds for food, clOth, hOuse materials, medicines and decorative items . They are important for our survival. So many animals find their place in our art, culture, religion, literature and mythology.
