The allocation of attention and resources to the protection of wild animals has become a contentious issue. While some argue that excessive efforts are being directed towards wildlife conservation, others believe that such measures are necessary. This essay will discuss both perspectives and present my own opinion. Critics of intensive wildlife conservation efforts argue that the resources could be better utilized to address more immediate human concerns. They contend that issues such as poverty, healthcare, and education should take precedence. For instance, in Vietnam, where rural areas still suffer from a lack of basic amenities, diverting funds to wildlife protection might seem unjustifiable. These critics believe that if resources were reallocated to human development, the overall well – being of society could be significantly improved. Furthermore, they argue that natural selection and evolution should take their course without human interference, allowing ecosystems to balance themselves naturally. However, I believe that the protection of wild animals is of paramount importance and should not be diminished. Biodiversity plays a crucial role in maintaining ecological balance, which directly impacts human survival. For example, in Vietnam, the preservation of forests and their wildlife helps regulate the climate, prevent soil erosion, and maintain water cycles. If these ecosystems were to collapse due to neglect, the consequences for human populations would be dire. Additionally, many species are endangered due to
