Going... Going... Gone

Eradication, Extinction, Destruction.
With the wrong persons entitlement,
This will happen to our environment.

Polar Bears, Penguins, Turtles.
These are animals close to possible extinction,
But, there is a fine line between endangered and extinction.
We just have to make a clear distinction.

An endangered species means it's not yet erased.
Because it has one more chance to be helped and embraced.
Whilst, extinct species are gone forever,
there will be no living animal whatsoever.

So, after all, people might be asking,
"What can I do?"
Well, all you have to do Is stay true,
Protect wildlife or else everything in the world
will slowly come crashing down on to you.
