The Protection of Endangered Species: A Working Effort or Failed Attempt

Part 3: Strengths and Weaknesses A weakness of this interview is the fact that Osterman only raised deer rather than a vast array of wildlife that would have given a better understanding. Or if she had raised certain endangered species, it would have directly linked to the essay. A strength of the article is the interaction she had with the deer she raised and the direct example she provides with raising her deer and the outcome it has shown.

Part 4: Comparison and Contrasts Compared to Bergman’s assumption that we only interfere with animals for our own selfish reasons of feeling good about ourselves, Osterman contradicts what Bergman says [9].

She thinks we help animals out of good nature and that with certain care, animals can be raised by people without any drawbacks. However Osterman does give levy to Bergman when she says she did have two exceptions when raising her deer, two of them did become slightly tame towards humans thus giving Bergman’s assertion that we cannot raise wild animals without some sort of hitch [9].

Part 5: Uses in the Essay I will be using the interview from Cindy Osterman in the stakeholders’ suggestions part of the essay. By using Osterman’s interview, she will help give information more on what is done with animal conservation. In this sense I will also use the interview in the first subissue dealing with whether or not current conservation efforts are working.
