Identify the type of text structure:

In most parts of the world there are not as many crocodiles as there used to be. This is a problem because crocodiles are becoming endangered, and they have died because people dried up the swamps and marshes where crocodiles live. Poachers have also contributed to the dilemma as crocodiles have been desired for their strong, smooth, leathery skins. In order to preserve these mighty creatures, people must take care of the crocodiles’ environment and help put a stop to the needless shooting of these animals.
