The destruction of forests, pollution, climatic changes and extensive hunting has resulted in the extinction of some species of plants and animals, and many more are approaching towards extinction. Man has realized today that destruction of wildlife means an end to his own survival.
The Aak bird of northern polar region, which was commonly seen some 100 years ago, has been so extensively haunted for meat and feather that its whole genus has vanished. Some 300 years ago, the moa bird of New Zealand became extinct. Dodo was a bird found in the Mauritius Island which became extinct about 300years ago as a result of merciless haunting. Thylacine, an animal with pouch, which was also known as wolf of Tasmania, is reported to have become extinct some 300 to 400 years ago. Indian tiger, Indian rhino, pink headed duck are the animals which have become extinct in our country during the present century. The number of rare and endangered animals has been increasing with time.
The destruction rate witnessed during the last few years was never seen before. In a period of 400 ears from 1550 to 1950, on an average, one species of animals have become extinct every year due to ignorance of man. By 1985, this rate increased to one species per day. If such trends continue, then by the end of the present century, 50,000 species will become extinct. Studies show that during 1980 to 2000, about 5, 00,000 species of plants and animals will face extinction i.e. 10% of total plants and animals will become extinct.

As we know that a great variety of animals exist on earth. They are essential for the well-being and survival of mankind. Today, a major threat to survival of these organisms is deforestation.We know that deforestation means clearing of forests and using that land for other purposes.This done for:
Procuring land for cultivation.
Building houses and factories.
Making furniture or using wood as fuel.
Having become aware of the effects of deforestation some protected areas called sanctuaries, national parks and biosphere reserves have been earmarked. Plantation, cultivation, grazing, felling trees, hunting and poaching are prohibited here. Government agencies also take care of the forests and animals. The government lays down rules, methods and policies to protect and conserve them. Apart from being dependent on government, it is our duty make our personal efforts and motivate our society to protect wildlife.
