Should We Bring Back Extinct Animals?

Should we bring reintroduce extinct animals? Scientist have been


debating if we should bring them back or not. Scientist also have been
trying to reintroduce animals that have been extinct for a long time.
They will find out what they do to the ecosystem and how they change
it. I dont think scientist should reintroduce these animals. These extinct
animals could affect the food chain. We dont really know what theyll
act like once we reintroduce them. Also, they could change everything
in the ecosystem.
First of all if we reintroduce the extinct animals they could affect
the food chain. According to hps.gov wolves have affected the food
chain by killing bears, cougars, and coyotes and more desirable species
were killed such as deer and elk. Most of the animal species that the
wolves have killed were very hard to repopulate. Most of the species
were endangered or all the animals went extinct. The wolves were
eventually out in a 9 gauge cage because they made so many species
begin to go extinct.
Another problem that scientist are having is that they dont know
what the animals will act like once they reintroduce them. Once we
reintroduced the wolves into Yellowstone Park they at least made all
the species went extinct or endangered. The wolves were the top
specie in Yellowstone Park for a couple of years. The wolves completely
changed the food chain because when the wolves ate the most
populated species there was nothing left to eat for any other species. In
1926 the government had removed the wolves from Yellowstone Park
and also removed other wolves from around the world.

According to dogonews when the wolves were reintroduced into


Yellowstone Park they changed all the ecosystems. Many of the animals
had to adapt to a new ecosystem mainly the beavers they had the most
trouble trying to adapt. Mainly because the willows the beavers would
eat them and all the animals tried to adapt to a new ecosystem so they
needed something to eat in order to survive. The willows were in bad
condition when the wolves came because the other animals needed
food and the willows were constantly pecked at by the animals. The
willows were the beavers main food to eat so after the animals ate the
willows the beavers had to search for food they have not eaten before.
I think we should not reintroduce extinct animals. They could
affect the food chain. We dont completely know what they will act like
once we reintroduce them. Also they could change everything in the
ecosystem. We should not reintroduce extinct animals, Other animals
were doing just fine the way they were living before.
