Save Pelicans to save life on Earth
Do you know that some species are dying for the fault of human activities? Do you know that the pollution that we make can affect some animals? Animals are suffering by cause of human activity. Humans are only worried about themselves, but they have to think about other species. Brown pelican is among the animals that are not happy in their habitat. This bird used to be related with Louisiana State, but now they are leaving from that state to places that are cleaner or colder. This bird has started to have troubles. According to Rekstad’s article, brown pelican is a victim of global warming. They were a bird always related with southern weather, but they began to migrate to northern places because they are colder. However the author said, “the pelicans have not flown south for the winter and are again freezing to death in north places” (Rekstad, 2008, para. 1). Another problem that pelicans have right now is that some humans in Florida have started to feed them and the bird has forgotten it’s migration route. “According to the FWC, feeding pelicans can be dangerous in a few ways. It can cause the bird to be reliant on the handouts, which means they don’t migrate south during the winter” (Page, 2008, para. 2). Finally, people have to take care of the pelicans because in 1950 the population of this bird decreased because of the use of DDT pesticide that killed a lot of them, because the food of the pelicans was contaminated with the chemical. If people don’t take care of this bird, they can start to be an endangered species.
People have to save pelicans, because we have to conserve the life on the Earth. Humans have to be careful about their activities to not lose any species in the world. Pelicans are not happy in the Earth. They cannot find a good place to live and they have started to die. People have to be prepared to save this species because they are part of the ecosystem and they help to maintain the balance in the ocean. First we have to create an organization specialized in saving pelicans, because not too many people are interested in saving pelicans. Second we can build a refuge where the pelicans can live happily. Third, we have to design a program that helps pelicans to migrate in winter, and finally, we have to study more about pelicans to know if humans are causing some damage to this species.
We can create an organization specialized in saving pelicans. The organization can get some help from governments that are worried about pelicans, like the Louisiana government. They created in 1968 “a joint effort between the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries…the program called for the transport of fledglings from Florida’s peninsula to three release sites in southeastern Louisiana” (USGS, 2008, para. 12). The organization can be helped by the International Bird Rescue Research Center in San Pedro, because according to Sahagun (2008), they admitted some pelicans that were hurt for special care. The organization has to be worried about the situations of the pelicans in the world, because they have to save this species of birds. The organization has to be in charge just of pelicans, because the problem with other organizations is that they have a lot of work and they can’t pay attention to the problems that one species has.
The organization to save pelicans can build a refuge to save this species. This refuge has to be built in a place near the sea. One good place could be a desert island. In Venezuela there exists a place called “Isla de Aves”, or Island of Birds; this is a refuge for birds and sea life. This is a natural reserve of the world. This does not mean that if Venezuela has a natural refuge, the United States has to have one. This means that the United States have to do something to help the pelicans. Pelicans are important to maintain the balance of the environment; also, they can be part of the entertainment of people. This refuge can be like a national reserve or like a national park, because those are examples where the life of endangered animals has been maintained. The refuge can find financial aid from visitors because the refuge can be open for some people to study the species, or people that want just to visit for fun. But the people who want to go there have to be supervised to not disturb the pelicans. Also not too many people can be there because people always bring pollution and that is one of the reasons that pelicans are disappearing.
The refuge for pelicans can be built with the help of some governments and people who give profit to save the birds. Some people in Louisiana are worried because they haven’t seen the pelicans anymore, according to Fahrenthold’s (2008) article. This kind of people can help with the organization. The island has to be provided with food for pelicans, but it is better to provide natural food, which means fish that they need to find in the water. Also the island has to be clean and provide good weather for pelicans to live. The island needs good populations of pelicans of both sexes to increase the population and not permit the extinctions of the animal. In the United States we are used to hearing that some actors and actress buy a private island to vacation; one of these islands could be good to build a refuge for pelicans. Pelicans do not need too much to live in the Earth, because they eat fish from the ocean; they just need a clean environment where they can find good food and where the ocean is not contaminated. If the ocean is a not contaminated pelican can fish good for food.
However, if we build a refuge for pelicans, they need to migrate, and we have to design a program that teaches pelicans where they can migrate to be safe in the winter. Pelicans could be too happy in the refuge, and they can forget that they have to migrate in winter. Also they need to migrate to find more food and to run away from the rain. The organization can teach pelicans by putting some food in the route that the pelicans have to use to migrate to another refuge. Volunteers around the coast that pelicans pass through to migrate can do this. Also the organization has to study more about pelican’s migration route and habitat to save the species.
The organization has to study more too about why the pelicans are not happy in Louisiana to know what can make this species happy and save them. The United States has a very long land, and they have some parts of the land that are empty; they can increase the natural parks to help pelicans to find a route to migrate from north to south, and help to save this species of animals that were popular in so many states of this country and now are not often seen them in the sky.
According to Miller, Jr. (1994), some economists think that we don’t have to be worried about the Earth, because we have the technology that can help us to save the species. This is not true, because if this were true we wouldn’t have species that were endangered. We have to save every species in the planet because we are not the only inhabitants in the Earth. Brown pelicans have to be saved because they are dying because of the human damage to the environment. Technology can help us to save some species, but if all of the pelicans die, technology cannot do anything to help us. Technology can help us to save the pelicans when they are not disappeared but technology cannot help us to bring to life species that are already disappeared.
Some people can wonder why we have to be worried about the extinction of the pelicans if a long time ago a lot of species had disappeared from the Earth even when humans were not living on the Earth. It is true that the extinction of some species is part of the process of life, but that happened through years, and years and the species are going to adapt to new types of life, that are part of the evolution. But pelicans are not disappearing because of the process of evolution; they are dying because of the human activities like what happened with DDT. That is the reason that we are losing our species and we are not progressing.
We have to save pelicans because they a part of the Earth’s life and they are dying because of human activities. To save pelicans we can create an organization specialized in saving pelicans. This organization can build a refuge for pelicans and can teach the pelicans to migrate in winter. Also the organization can study more about pelicans to save the species. Pelicans are important for the Earth and humans have to learn how to live taking care of the environment. If humans don’t do this, no life in the Earth can survive.
