We kill animals for their fur and feathers, for food, for sport, and simply because they are in the way. Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared(消失) from the Earth for-ever. Hundreds more may disappear soon. Many kinds of animals are now on the dlist in China and elsewhere.

    Should we care about animals being killed? Of course we should. If animals of a certain kind all disappear, they will not be around any more. Animals are m than just beautiful or interesting. They are more than just food for people. Every animal has its place in the balance of nature. Killing one kind of animal can make. o kinds disappear, too.

    For e, when farmers kill too many birds, their fields could be damaged by insects. This is because birds eat insects. When there are not e birds around the farm, there will be too many insects.

    Luckily, many people now understand that we cannot kill animals whenever we want to, and they are working hard to s those animals that could disappear soon. More people should join in such work so that we can keep the balance of nature.
