Poaching

Poaching. Doesn’t sound nice, does it? And it’s not a nice thing either. In 2012 668 rhinos were poached for their horns. Some people believed that rhino’s horn were useful for medicine when really they were as useless as chewing your own finger nails.

Adult’s elephants with the biggest tusks were poached putting the leaders of the herds at greater risk.

 

There are roughly 3,200 tigers in the world; here are some of the parts they use.

 

The teeth are used to treat fevers

 

The tail is used to treat skin diseases

 

The whiskers are used to treat tooth ache

 

 

I think this should stop because it’s cruel, illegal, and making them endangered.

I think we should make more people aware of what’s happing.
