Animals as victims of human impact on nature

Hi! Today I'm going to write about an awful and horrible topic: the endangered animals.

I know a few animals who are victims of the human depredation (hunters) in my country. For example: the pudú and the condor are some of this endangered species.
Constantly we are watching in the TV, news about this situation in which we know about the shocking decrease in the numbers of the different species, and last but not least, the hunters are photographed with their prey wanting to demonstrate their achievements, often without knowing that they are causing a damage to both: the animal and the environment.

I think in recent times, dams have been an important factor that has affected the ecosystem in some species, as well as pollution of the city, or the projects like 'Pascua Lama', etc, because it's a change in the habitat of this animals, and directly affects their lifestyle, food, reproduction, and also begins to slowly kill the species involved, only by human selfishness, by the ambition to build these things and get more money, even no matter of the people who live in those places.
Finally, exists Greenpeace that it's one of the biggest organizations against the human impact in nature, especially in the ocean and in the forests. They are constantly collecting signatures, and making ads in networks to stop some iniquities, and also the activists fight against political people, organizing public events where they risk their lives for their ideals.
