Amazon Rainforest still threatened by Cattle ranching
The Amazon rainforest is still under threat from cattle ranching. The forest is being cut down at an astonishingly fast rate as the need for grazing land increases. Since many can make a good living from cattle ranching the rainforest will continue to be destroyed.

Cattle Industries are cutting the Amazon Rainforest down they cut trees so they can make more pens for cattle and selling the beef to other countries and when they get more cattle they slaughter over 4000 cattle a week. in a year from now it could be gone cattle industries light the forest on fire to make way on the grasslands the goverment is against this matter, climate change is the key to this disaster.

Ranching; This procedure makes a lot of money by exporting
more cattle and beef than any industry in the world.but it is a problem because they have to destroy tree’s to make room for cattle, When they get more cattle they slaughter over 4000 a week.
