Subject − Expressing views on the effect of human activities on a population of animals in your area.

Respected sir/ma’am,

Recently in the nearby area human activities are increasing at a very fast pace. The area is mainly occupied by animals. The human activities intervening in that area are construction, pollution, hunting, and scientific activities. The hunting, poaching, scientific activities, and farming are direct impact on animal population. The indirect impacts are pollution, construction, and climate change.

These human activities tend to destroy animal habitat as due to these interferences animals cannot mate easily, cannot reproduce, and cannot roam freely. They feel lack of shelter and protection. Their food resources become limited. So, it is important to stop or limit human activities in that nearby area.
