Some people say that the government wastes too much money on animal conservation programs while there are other pressing issues. I partly agree with
this
statement. My position is articulated Linking Words

in the essay below.
Linking Words
First
and foremost, on the one hand, it makes more sense for the national budget to be spread evenly or directed to some critical issues like poverty, unemployment and infrastructural development than to be invested in wildlife protection. People cannot go to bed hungry nor do the youths wander the streets without jobs while animals are enjoying 'Linking Words

citizen treatment'. Linking Words
For instance
, there are so many animal habitats in African countries that are well-built while citizens languish in poverty and live in atrocious conditions.

On the other hand
, Linking Words
however
, protecting wildlife is critical and important because it ensures that the tourism industry is sustained. Linking Words
This
Linking Words
consequently
bulges the financial coffers of the nation. Linking Words
For example
, 80 per cent of the revenue collected by the Zimbabwean government comes from tourists seeking to view nature and a wide array of animal creatures the country is endowed with. Linking Words
Further
still, Linking Words
this
revenue can be used to address the other problems the state faces and give future generations an opportunity to see the conserved wild species.
In conclusion, Linking Words
therefore
, I appreciate individuals that think the state must not spend too much on conservation projects when other pressing issues are not addressed. Linking Words
However
, as I discussed in the essay, conserving wildlife can result in financial growth through tourism which helps to deal with these other matters.Linking Words
