The Important Presence For Nebraska

According to the article, “Otter Could Call Neb.’s Republican River Home”, otters that lived in Nebraska once disappeared by the early 1990s because of unlimited trapping. However, thanks to people who want to restore animals to the historical ranges, otter reintroduction has had great effort in other states. Moreover, in several areas, many otters released in 1980s through the early 1990s and now they can be seen all across the state. Otters brought success to Nebraska. They gave visitors unique impressions, for example by chasing each other, diving for clamshells, and sliding down wet bank.

It is apparent that reintroduction of otters had the big effect of making people pay attention to the fact that otters are n danger of extinction in some ways. First, they learned the fact that was trapped for their fur. Second, at seven sites people noticed that they are important. Third, people have gotten interest in otters.

First of all, it’s effective that people realized the reason why otters disappeared. If anything, there are some people who don’t know the fact or have interest in endangered species than people who care about them. Although it is no wonder that we think we are trying to protect these species, it was admirable that a few people tried to do something to restore them

Second, now it is right that they finally realized the fact and released them. But it was too late, because they released them after they were designated as an endangered species. They should research the condition of them more if they thought otters were an important presence for them. If they had realized this earlier, more otters could have lived in the many areas.

Third, it was totally successful because their presence was showed them to be as important animals to visitors, and the feeling of people that don’t want to lose these precious presence became higher and higher. Moreover, it is effective for the government of Nebraska in that number of otters increased after they were released

In conclusion, the action of rescuing otters was effective in Nebraska. Moreover, it told many people several important things, for example, otters were an endangered species and the best way is to release them. Unlike the other article, this one described he effect that some people make for species and the success that they achieve. Thanks to the action of several people who tried to solve this problem, this made us realize that we have to do our best to save it, as they took first step for them.
