For Reading

In reading we read an article and then we did some tasks, here is mine:

“Although the technology is almost here, bringing back the Moa would

be a huge venture. It would take a large team of scientists and cost a

lot of money. There would also be no guarantee of success – and many

embryos and even live chicks would die during the process.”

- Return of the Moa (Berentson)

Your task is to write a persuasive paragraph telling the reader whether you think it would be a good idea or a bad idea to bring back the Moa based on the quote above.

I don’t think bringing back the Moa is a very good idea because it may change people's point of view to extinct animals. If Moa were brought back many endangered animals might stop being protected because people will know they can be brought back. If animals that were hunted were brought back wouldn’t they be hunted again? Would bringing the Moa back work because there is no guarantee of success? Anyway how would we know if it would work and they might ruin the lifestyle of other animals. Also in the short time that the Moa have been dead their food might have changed or died. Anyway we don’t know what they ate. That is why I don’t think bringing back the Moa would be a good idea.
