Are sentences 3 and 4 a good thesis statement in a persuasive essay on saving endangered animals? If not, how can it be improved on?
Extinction started out as a natural process before the arrival of humans. Countless species have gone extinct through the process of natural selection. The dinosaurs are the best known example of this. Today, man has populated the Earth to such an extent that habitat destruction and animal poaching are now the primary causes of species decline. In order to make room for our ever-increasing population, humans have slashed, burned, and chopped their way into habitats, destroying species at a rate faster than they can replenish themselves. Each person can contribute in even small ways to help save endangered animals.
