Many animals are dying from poaching. More than 100 million animals are reported killed by hunters in the U.S.A. per year. Many species are going extinct by illegal poaching. In my opinion, I strongly believe poaching endangered species should stop. My reasons are endangered species are being hunted for pelts, clothing, food or just to kill them , some animals are going extinct by poachers, and because some species have exotic adaptions.
I strongly believe, endangered animals should not be hunted for, clothing, food, pelts, or just to kill the animal. For instance, the Javan Rhino is getting poached because of the value of it’s horn. Also there is estimated amount of 65 Javan rhinos left in the world. Another example of this is, the Sea Turtle being hunted for their meat. There is about less than a million sea turtles left in the world. Based on what I read, the Grey Wolf is becoming extinct by illegal hunters taking over their land and hunting them. There is a estimate of 300,000 Grey Wolves left on the globe. Hunting for endangered animal fur is a way of poaching.
I strongly believe, endangered species should not be going extinct just because of poachers. For instance, the Vaquita is going extinct because of illegal gill nets. There is around 12 left in the wild. Based on what I read, another example, is the Amazon River Dolphin going extinct because of water pollution and water traffic. In ,the whole world there is about 13,000 left in the wild. Another example, the Saola is going extinct with a population of 70-700 in the world and the reason behind this is poaching. Poachers also kill exotic animals that are endangered for money or just to kill them.
I strongly believe, poachers should not just hunt endangered animals because they have exotic or rare adaptions. For example, the Bengal Tiger is going extinct because of habitat loss and poachers. There is around 2,500 Bengal Tigers left in the world. Another example, is the Siberian Tiger being hunted/poached to extinction. There is around 450 Siberian Tigers left in the wild. For instance, the Bonobo because of poachers targeting them. There is a estimated amount of 10,000 -20,000 left in the world.
In conclusion, I strongly believe endangered animals should not be hunted. In my opinion, I believe poaching animals should stop. My reasons, are endangered species are being hunted for pelts, clothing, food, or gust to kill them, some animals are going extinct because of poachers and some animals are critically endangered because poachers want to hunt the because of their rare adaptions. You can stop this by protecting all animals like your own pet for they stay safe just like you.
