Abstract
"Since life began on this planet, countless creatures have come and gone - rendered extinct by naturally changing ecological conditions, and more recently by humans and their activities.
If extinction is part of the natural order, and if many species still remain, some people ask, 'why save endangered species? What makes a relatively few animals and plants so special that effort and money should be spent to preserve them?'"
