Steno General Dictation No. 263

It is true that in many countries the amount of animal species or plants is decreasing. There are many reasons why we are facing this problem but steps definitely can be taken to tackle this problem. The first and most important reason for this problem is the destruction of forests. Many plants and animal species live and grow in the rainforests thus deforestation could have a negative impact on many animals habitats. Secondly, many animals become the prey of hunters. For instance, many rare breeds of birds are endangered by extinction in Iran, but a lot of hunters dont care about it and continue to hunt. Lastly, it is worth mentioning that climate change affects natural habitats. Many faunas could not thrive in harsh and scorching weather.
