How Humans Are Causing the Extinction of Primate Species Report This week we learned about the hundreds of living primate species. Extinction events are common in the history of the earth. They can happen quickly as a result of a catastrophic event, or slowly as a result of things like climate change. In the era of our species Homo sapien, however, we are seeing a rapid endangering and then extinction of many non-human primates.

you will consider the following readings:

Jha, A. (2010). Almost half of all primates face imminent extinction. The Guardian. Retrieved from http://www.theguardian.com/environment/2010/feb/18/primates-extinction-red-list
Estrada, A., Garber, P.A., Rylands, A.B., et.al. (2017, January 18). Impending extinction crisis of the world’s primates. Science Advances, 3(1). Retrieved from https://advances.sciencemag.org/content/3/1/e1600946

Then answer the following questions:

Provide two examples of how our species is causing the potential for extinction among specific primates.
Provide at least one example of non-human causes that might be influencing the potential extinction among specific primates.
Do you agree with the analysis of the evidence presented in the article “Impending extinction crisis of the world’s primates”?
Do you believe that we as humans should be responsible for changing our activities to prevent the extinction of our primate relatives?

There’s no word limit as long as you completely respond to the questions, thank you.
