Importance.ü

Why save endangered species? Maybe.. there are some of us who doesn't know their importance. what they bring to our planet. how they help the survival of other species, even us, probably.
As what I've researched and as we all know, plants and animals are responsible for lots of useful medications. they help, not only US (human), but even other species or animals. And they also are a factor of pharmaceutical industry since 40% of prescription today are from natural compounds of different species here on Earth. We still lose 100 species daily, though.
Hmm.. in Ecology, however, they also play a crucial role for they are the foundation of healthy ecosystems. We, humans, depend on them, too. endangerment of these species is a gauge that the health of these ecosystems is about to unravel.
._♥_.
As what we've all learned this year, everything is connected. if species will begin its countdown then sooner or later, we'll all be affected. So, we better start saving them now before it's too late. :)
