Look through the text and find the causes of endangerment. When discussing the causes of endangerment, it is important to understand that individual species are not the only factors involved in this dilemma. Endangerment is a broad issue, one that involves the habitats and environments where species live and interact with one another. There are many reasons why a particular species may become endangered. Although these factors can be analyzed and grouped, there are many causes that appear repeatedly. Below are several factors leading to endangerment: Our planet is continually changing, causing habitats to be altered and modified. When changes occur at a fast pace, there is little or no time for individual species to react and adjust to new circumstances ( обстоятельства ). The strongest forces in rapid habitat loss are human beings ( люди ). Nearly every region of the earth has been affected by human activity, particularly during this past century. Species have been biologically introduced to environments all over the world, and the most destructive effects have occurred on islands. Introduced insects, rats, pigs, cats, and other foreign species have actually caused the endangerment and extinction of hundreds of species during the past five centuries. Exotic species are certainly a factor leading to endangerment. A species that faces overexploitation is one that may become severely endangered or even extinct due to the rate in which the species is being used. Unrestricted whaling during the 20th century is an example of overexploitation, and the whaling industry brought many species of whales to extremely low population sizes. Disease, pollution, and limited distribution are more factors that threaten various plant and animal species. If a species does not have the natural genetic protection against particular pathogens, an introduced disease can have severe effects on that specie .

Now match the short texts with the reasons for saving animals. Medicinal Agricultural ( сельскохозяйственный ) Ecological Commercial( коммерческий ) Aesthetic \ recreational ( эстетический/развлекательный) Animals provide humans with the means to develop new crops ( урожай ) that can grow in in poor soils ( почва ) or drought-stricken ( засушливый ) areas to help solve the world hunger problem . Plants and animals are responsible for a variety of useful medications. In fact, about forty percent of all prescriptions written today are composed from the natural compounds of different species . Plant and animal species and their ecosystems form the basis of America’s multi-billion dollar, job-intensive tourism industry. They also supply recreational ( развлекательный ), spiritual, and quality-of-life values as well . Plant and animal species are the foundation of healthy ecosystems. Humans depend on ecosystems. When species become endangered, it is an indicator that the health of these vital ecosystems is beginning to unravel ( разрушаться ). Various wild species are commercially raised, directly contributing to local and regional economies.
