Ways to prevent animals and plants from becoming extinct

1. We should conserve endangered species of animals and plants to 
    prevent them from becoming extinct.
2. Some of the ways to conserve endangered species are as follows:
    a) creating protected area
       Certain foreste have been declared by our goverment as 
       protected areas and permanent forests reserves. For example, 
       Taman Negara, Pahang is a wildlife sanctuary and forest 
       reserve.Hunting and logging are prohibited in this area. 
    b) setting up a breeding or rehabilitation centres
       For examples:
       i) The Sepilok Orang-utan Rehabilitation Centre in Sabah 
       rescues orang utan from deforested area.
       ii) The Turtle Sanctuary Centre in Terengganu is particularly for  
       protecting eggs of endangered turtles.
    c) practise selective logging
       Only large and mature trees are cut down for timber. So that, 
       forests are not totally destroyed and this enables animals to 
       continue living in the forests. 
    d) reforestation
       Forests which have been logged should be replanted.
    e) organising campaigns
       Againts illegal and excessive logging
    f) educating the public
       About the importance of protecting and conserving animals and 
       plants.
    g) avoid consuming or buying
       Products made from any parts of endangered animals.
    h) enforcing the law and regulations
       For example, the National Forestry Act to prevent illegal 
       logging activities and the Wildlife Protection Act to prevent 
       illegal hunting.
