A little over two decades ago, India launched the “Project Tiger” covering nine National Parks, which was by far the most ambitious project to save tiger. Initially the project claimed tremendous success. However, in the last few years, the systemic killing of tigers by poachers has led to sharp decline in the number and the wheel seems to have turned full

    Iconic African species are declining at a startling speed because of unsustainable hunting. Consider the African lion for example. Their numbers have reduced from approximately 450,000 in the 1940s to 200,000. Furthermore Oxford University research shows that by 2035, the number of lions will likely be decreased by a further 50%. Trophy hunters contribute to this decline by killing around 105,000 animals every year. the original intention of trophy hunters was to control healthy populations of individual species. Numbers were managed under the guise of culling. However, the trophy hunters never stopped hunting even when healthy numbers were achieved, and the trophy hunting has become a status symbol for the wealthy, especially in Asia.…

    To fully understand how the tiger effects it`s ecosystem you must fully know the status of this animal as of right now. Less than one hundred years ago tigers roomed most of Asia. They could be found from the forests of eastern Turkey and the Caspian region of Western Asia, all the way to the Indian sub-continent, China, and Indochina, south to Indonesia, and north to the Korean Peninsula and the Russian Far East(4). Unfortunately now tigers are found in only thirteen range states which is only 7% of their original land. These states consist of Bangladesh, Bhutan, Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia (Sumatra), Lao PDR, Malaysia, Myanmar, Nepal, Russia, Thailand, and Vietnam(1). From this land loss we have lost nearly 97% of our wild tiger population. There are as few as 3,200 tigers remaining(4).…

    Unfortunately, many countries who have banned tiger poaching are not implementing the law. According to TRAFFIC, a global wildlife trade monitoring network and a joint program of the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), a lack of law enforcement threatens several species of tiger (Nowell, 2007). TRAFFIC stresses that “law enforcement is necessary to prevent illegal trade” (Nowell, 2007). Even so, every species of tiger, except the Siberian tigers, have a declining population.…

    Why Poaching Kills

    • 3684 Words
    • 15 Pages

    Since 2007, a number of 5,940 rhinos have been killed in South Africa. Awhile ago, there were an estimated 500,000 rhinos worldwide, but now because of poaching three out of five rhino species were put on the verge of extinction. One of the highest cities in which poaching occurs is Vietnam.With studies proving that 4 out of every 6 poachers use high-tech equipment to poach animals. There are also many cops who in return for not arresting poachers will get a part of the benefit a poacher would, selling ivory or a rhino horn on the black market. The elusive wildlife and plant trade is estimated to be worth $70-213 billion a year (PDF) and damages the natural resources of countries and wealth of businesses around the world. The animals that get poached the most include bears, rhinos, tigers, elephants and much more. Leatherback sea turtles are nearing extinction, while their eggs are being sold on the black market as an aphrodisiac. Amur leopards which are very close to extinction with an estimated 30-40 of them left in the world because of poaching, they're killed for their fur and skin to be used for clothing and decoration. Siberian tigers have been classified as endangered with 3,000-3,200 left in the world. They have become so rare that anyone can purchase a small Siberian tiger on the black market for $50,000. The saola, an animal known to the Asian civilians as a mythical creature…

    Animals In Captivity

    The first point that this essay will address is the simple fact that zoo owners have propaganda in mind, and not preservation. “Zoos help save endangered species, by saving hurt animals and rehabilitating them,” is an excuse many zoo officials use. Zoos claim to want to protect species from extinction, which sounds like a noble goal, but zoo officials usually favor exotic or popular animals, rather than threatened or endangered local wildlife. The Chinese government, for example, “rents” pandas to zoos worldwide for fees of more than $1 million per year. It is questionable whether the profits are being directed toward panda-conservation efforts at all. Also, because tigers are the most favorable “crowd pleasers,” recent studies prove that there are more tigers in captivity than those that exist in the wild. There are thought to be between 5,000 and 10,000 tigers in U.S. cages and 90% of them are in miserable roadside zoos, backyard breeder facilities, circus wagons and pet homes. Before long, the few tigers left in…

    Animal wildlife is something that should be treasured and protected, not devastated by inconsiderate poachers. Poaching has contributed to the extinction of animal species all over the world. Some of the species that have been affected and have gone extinct are the Tasmanian tiger, the eastern cougar, the eastern elk, the black rhino and numerous amounts of bird species (IDA). Poachers usually kill wildlife in order to make tax free profit from the wildlife’s resources which can be antlers, meat, teeth, pelts, or anything valuable on the animal. The sport of hunting is accepted by most of the country, 79 percent to be accurate (Brassard, 2013). Although hunting legally is accepted, poaching is something that nearly everyone despises and would like to get rid of. What many…
