Wildlife Hunting Becomes Biggest Problem

I once read from a book entitled "protect animal life" there it reveals that the bird population is increasingly threatened with extinction. The highest cause is the threat of poaching, Why can this happen? Not only birds, poaching of wild animals threatens all animals, especially animals that have protected status. However, birds are the animals most targeted by hunters.

If usually the rescue of protected mammals from hunting only finds one or two, but the rescue of birds from illegal hunting reaches at least 100. Poaching or illegal hunting of birds can occur due to increasing market demand. The cause of this is because the public is influenced after seeing officials or influencers keeping protected birds, so that both have an important influence.

If their followers are influenced to keep birds, then market demand will increase, High market demand causes widespread bird hunting in the wild, the life of mammals such as birds is very likely to become extinct, most of the targets of hunting are birds that have beautiful and good voices, feathers, this kind of work makes birds rare, the more enthusiasts, the more birds disappear among us.

The second reason why bird populations are threatened with extinction is related to the threat to their habitat. Overall, ecologically or psychologically, birds are more concentrated in areas where vegetation such as plants that occupy an ecosystem is still dense. However, now many forests have become agricultural land. Especially agriculture that prioritizes commercialization. Agricultural land that prioritizes commercial and profit can threaten the sustainability of birds, if the situation is like that, what should we do?

Basically, the government has regulated the protection of natural resources and ecosystems. However, if we violate the above decision, the impact will be that the lives of wild animals such as birds will be disturbed. Usually, bird chirping is very easy for us to hear, we don't need to go into the forest to hear it. However, further education is still needed so that the regulations are better understood by the public. Especially for people who live around conservation areas. all parties can play a role so that the bird population can get out of the brink of extinction. Only one, namely stopping keeping wild animals, especially birds.

This effort is very important for individuals to do, by stopping keeping wild animals, especially birds. The higher the demand or purchase of birds in the market, the higher the hunting of wild birds. The population of birds in the wild will decline. If massively, bird protection can be done with conservation movements as regulated in the Regulation of the Minister of Environment and Forestry on Conservation Institutions, this movement can be done by many parties. Such as, animal rehabilitation centers and wildlife observation centers.
