Why do humans create an endangered species list, not include themselves, but always talk about the end?

Answer 1

Excellent, Well done...I think it may be ego or ignorance and lean toward ignorance thereby encompassing ego.

Answer 2

An endangered species list is one where the animals are becoming so few that they are on the verge of extinction. We are not there yet, but who knows in the future?

Answer 3

Saturation, friend. It is only in places like Y!A do people frequently talk about the world coming to an end.

Philosophers as a group tend to be depressives and obsessed with death.

Read some of the other categories and see how often "the end" comes up.

Answer 4

Because almost everyone knows that in the end, we will be the end of ourselves. There will eventually be that time where all of humanity will be wiped out, and a new species will occur. The subject itself is more eerie than cloning, and the public tends to hide questions and facts to prevent distortion.

Answer 5

Fear of unknowns, cognitive processing of simple observation, misinterpretation of evidence, and "what we are told" prompts the consideration of the hypothetical. But, bandaid societal responses to this fear, conflicting macro-societal messages, and failing to re-examine "what we are told" helps create doubt about the possible becoming a certainty. Greed as well as ego-maniac, grandiose proportions of self-preservation and self-importance helps justify and reinforce this doubt. In combo, these factors prevent translation of endangered situations from being seen as an actual forthcoming reality for humans.

Answer 6

Cos, humans think they are always too smart to perish from planet Earth......and talking about the End ? Well, cos they think they can out smart the Ending......

Answer 7

humans record an endangered list because we have to know what animals we haven't killed off yet & what we have left !!!!

Answer 8

people fear change and the unknown. so why dwell on it.
