На счет последнего я не совсем уверенна, но остальные должны быть правильными :)

a lot of animals die because of people’s fault. the number of species is diminishing nowadays. the reason for it is the slighting attitude to ecology. but not everybody thinks that it is a serious problem. 

there are two opinions on this issue: some people suppose the animal’s death not to be a vital issue nowadays. others disagree with them. i think that the latter opinion is right.the disappearance of animals is a very important problem. firstly, a lot of species are helpful for people. animals give us food, clothes, and different materials. secondly, every spice is the result of evolution, and we destroy millennial legacy killing animals. thirdly, no one living creature deserves death. every being has the right to live.but some people think that the rescue of animals is the waste of money. there are more important things to pay attention to. a lot of animals are also dangerous.in my opinion, they are not right. the rescue of lives can not be in vain. the correct treatment of animals is the guarantee of your safety.luckily it is possible to save a lot of lives, and we will be able to do it if we want. but it was just my opinion. of course, everyone remains unconvinced.  множество животных умирает от рук человека. в наши дни число видов уменьшается. причиной тому является пренебрежительное отношение к экологии. но не каждый считает это серьёзной проблемой. существует для мнения по этому поводу: некоторые люди полагают, что гибель животных не является важной проблемой в наши дни. другие не согласны с ними. я думаю, что второе мнение правильное.исчезновение животных – это важная проблема. во-первых, множество видов полезно для людей. животные нам еду, одежду и различные материалы. во-вторых, каждый вид является результатом эволюции, и, убивая животных, мы разрушаем наследие многих тысячелетий.но некоторые люди думают, что спасение животных – это пустая трата денег. есть более важные проблемы, на которые следовало бы обратить внимание. так же многие животные опасны.по моему мнению, они не правы. спасение жизней не моет быть напрасным. правильное обращение с животными гарантирует вашу безопасность.к счастью,  ещё возможно сохранить множество жизней, и мы сможем сделать это, если захотим. но это только моё мнение. конечно, каждый останется при своём.
