Description
The hawksbill sea turtle is a gentle creature of our oceans. Sadly, it is critically endangered from hunting for its meat and beautiful shell, which is used in decoration. It is also endangered from habitat destruction of its nesting sites and pollution.Commissions are open: xkeroppi.deviantart.com/journa…

It's only natural that speies die out. I don't see anything wrong with it really. It's not like humans didn't create new species like pigs, cows, dogs, cats. And how many types of plants.
Live will go on well... of course well miss the cudly pandas, but in the end they were bound to die out keeping them alive is just stupid :/

First, humans did not create dogs, pigs, cows, etc. All BREEDS of dogs, cats, cows belong to a single species. And for plants (dont get me started!), actually we are severely reducing plant diversity. Just one example - there used to be hundreds of natural varieties of corn. Now there is one main 'corn' in the USA.
Second, it is scientifically proven that humans are indeed causing mass extinctions up to 10,000 times the natural rate of extinction. Yes, extinctions occur naturally, but not at this current rate. You can google Holocene or Anthropocene for more info.
Trust me, I'm a scientist.

You are a shitty scientist then!
dogs - sect breed from wolves by humans
cats - okay there are wild cats I give you a point
cows - yes there are no wild cows they were created by long select breeding too
Okay corn... do you know that corn is not a natural speacies? The same as rice and any wheat is. Or brocolli?
Grass was by people long ago in south america and select bred until it atained the correct traits and finally became a seperate speacies now known as corn.
The history of wheat and rice was simmilar.
Even carrots are just human creations. As a REAL wild carrot is small white or purple and nearly tasteless.
Huamns ar causing extinction, some speacies will go extinct the opthers will survive.
Do you know for example that the rat, seagul and pigeon poppulations are dependant on humans?

And more on plants (YOU GOT ME STARTED!), we have reduced plant diversity so much that we need to make a lab to preserve the few seeds left of some species. How pathetic is that. Google 'global seed vault'.

Then "natural" is wrong.
When death becomes trivial something is definitely wrong.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Death was always trivial. Humans are the only creatures that see life as something special and to be valued -.-
If you say natural is wrong stop ranting about it and invent immortality,death is sad but it always comes.
Tell me if the thing dying out would be a leach or a cockroack... would you be even remotelly sad about it?
Humanity is the only speacies stupid enough to try keeping it's rivals alive just for the sake that they like looking at them.
Damn why is this speacies more important than billions of chickens killed every year? There are more chicken on earth than humans and they exist solelly to be tortured al their lives and than eaten by us.
I don't get you people...

You are incorrect. You cannot speak for every being on this planet, and you did not account for beings in other worlds.
And do you not think that life should have a value...?
If so, you are part of the side of humanity that is even less evolved than the rest of this primitive species.
Immortality is not something you can invent. Even if you make bodies regenerate indefinitely, it wouldn't be real immortality.
No, but it is still a part of what makes this world wrong, even without humans.
So you think that no being should evolve past the point where it considers everything else a rival...?
So because of that, no one should give a damn about anything else either...?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, it should but it does not.
Yes, I think that slowing down your development fot other species is bad.
Yes exactly.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
So instead of evolving into something beautiful, you want humanity to become a terrible, twisted race that doesn't care about anything than themselves...
I'd rather see humanity extinct. Individuals is what matters, not the species.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Your logic will get us extinct -.-
Well, there are different people.
Btw, humanity stopped evolving due to modern madicine and we are facing a decline. So we won't really chance within the next few million years untill we modify ourselves.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Your logic will turn humanity into wraiths.
Or they'll be extinct when the next cataclysm happens.
Humanity hasn't stopped evolving though. it just takes more time than you seem to think.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It has, there is still a debate going on but scientists agree that it has. Any further changes in huamn genom will be caused mostly by genetic drift and the mixing of races.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
How would they know that...? Evolution takes a very long time.
And don't ignore the truth about your so called "logic", where humans only care about themselves and let everything else go extinct.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
They know that because they anylized how evolution progresses in other speacies and what the trend and pead is and what factors infulence it. Than they took it and applied the method to humans, we humans are able to keep even the mst deffect mutated offsprng alife and let it reproduce. No genes are excloded from the genepoll, therefor no evolution.
Damn read some science please... this is like known since the 80's?
We don't let everything else go extinct -.-
We let go extinct the stuff that we don't need. + are you really so arogant that you think humanity has the kapacity to make any other life form extinct?
*bursts out lughing
To be exact, humans are not even the most efficient speacies on earth. Ants for example! Bacteria viruses?
Shit scientists even came to the conclusion that if our sun was suddenly gone live would still trive on earth for millions of years.
Humans can't kill, or even harm nature. We can at most change nature so much it won't allow us to survive as a part of it.

"Humans are able to keep even the mst deffect mutated offsprng alife and let it reproduce. No genes are excloded from the genepoll".
That has nothing to do with evolution. It's just that humans are not cold hearted like animals (in this case you are a part of the animal category).
The current science is too primitive to be 100% accurate. It is still a lot of guessing.
Because there are people who care about animals, unlike you.
You want it to be that way though. if an animal is about to go extinct, you think that nothing should be done.
So if something is not useful to humans, it doesn't matter if it dies...?
if humanity spreads and think like you, a lot of things will go extinct.
That must mean you love ants. They create what you would call an "utopia". All about efficiency and no emotions.
That would make the gravity disappear as well though, so I doubt it would exist for much longer after that.
They can destroy almost all life on earth though, but it depends what you mean by "nature".
