Call to conserve the environment in Durango

1086

As a community and civil society, we must all contribute, have a conscience, and a civil commitment for the conservation of the environment in Durango and of spaces such as the Sahuatoba Zoo, in favor of present and future generations.

By taking protest as president of the Consultative Council of the Municipal Wildlife Conservation Institute, in which other professionals committed to caring for our habitat also participate, we will make the participation of citizens heard as a fundamental aspect in making decisions that contribute to the care of the flora and fauna of Durango.

One of the greatest threats that species have to deal with is the deterioration and loss of their habitat, through the protection of the places where animals live and the construction and maintenance of these spaces, we are protecting their life and life on the planet, so the work of Mayor Jorge Salum del Palacio and the director of the Municipal Institute for Wildlife Conservation Juan Emilio Camacho Rocha to positively transform the Sahuatoba Zoo is significant, especially during these times of the pandemic.

Thus, the time and the closure of the enclosure were used in this period for its remodeling; In 2021, the construction of the serpentarium, remodeling, and reconstruction of seven shelters, and the construction of a Nutrition area or kitchen for animals are planned.

In addition, several animal births are expected this year, such as the dromedary female, the bear, the antelope deer, and the canines, in addition to the other pair of Canadian wolves, with which these births are added to those registered in 2020.

Nature is fascinating and powerful and there are many of us who love it unconditionally, so the conservation of animal species is important for the simple fact of loving life and its beauty and respect its existence. In the conservation of animal species, as in the case of plants, the same effort must be allocated to all genera and families.

Basic natural resources and ecosystems must be managed sustainably in order to meet the population’s food demand and other environmental, social, and economic needs. Climate change, increasing water scarcity, and conflicts over access to resources are all elements that pose challenges to environmental sustainability and food security.

Although it is difficult to predict the total impact that the loss of a species could cause on the planet, this fact could lead to disastrous consequences in the ecosystem, triggering reactions that would affect other species, because the fate of all species in the planet, including that of the human being, are linked to each other; everything is united. Each species has its role in the ecosystem, is part of a network of species, and contributes that irreplaceable grain of sand in the world.

The union of all these species forms an extraordinary result that allows us to live the way we do and the lack of these threatened granites, endangered species, would alter food chains and ecosystems, which would ultimately imply an inescapable imbalance for the health of the planet in general and for our well-being in particular.
