Save animals in danger of extinction?
There are over 1100 mammal species, 1200 bird species, and 1811 species of amphibians that are endangered. When I think of endangered species I think of the Giant Pandas or Tigers, but the truth is there are thousands of species of all classifications that are endangered of being wiped out. Do you think that we as humans who have caused most of these animals to become as threatened as they are should continue to try to save them? What could you do to help protect these animals? Do you think that we should just allow these species to die off? How could we help these species to thrive once again?

Do you agree with PETA?
PETA stands for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. Members of PETA believe that animals should not be treated poorly by humans. Members of PETA are mostly vegans, which means they will not consume any meat or dairy products. Members of PETA believe that people should not wear fur and that animals should not be used for people's entertainment, such as in a circus. PETA fights large food corporations that serve meat because they believe the animals are being mistreated during processing. Corporations such as Armour and Kentucky Fried Chicken are often accused of mistreating animals during food processing by PETA. Many corporations do not agree with PETA's beliefs that preparing and eating meat is wrong. Do you agree with PETA's views? Do you eat meat and dairy products? Do you think that animals were put on the Earth for human consumption? Have you ever considered becoming a vegan or a vegetarian? Why or why not?
