the issue intentionally‚ our ecosystems will begin to collapse and we will no longer have the variety we currently do of food‚ medicine‚ animals and thousands of products will not be available to us because so many companies use materials that contain animal by-products. Also‚ I will give you more insight on what it means to be endangered as well as give some examples of animals who are. Firstly‚ we ask the question “How does the loss of animal species impact ecosystems?” There are several factors
