Elephant Poaching by Khloie Tolvier


Elephants are killed Each year and poached, and left in africa to bleed out, and die for there ivory tusk which is for items that us humans don't really need, such as jewelry piano keys etc. Over ten thousand elephants die a year do to just poaching imagine how many elephants die a year without the poaching and just natural causes over an 100 so we are just increasing the number.

    it makes me sad that there is such a high demand for elephant ivory. i think we should make synthetic ivory more common so the elephants don't go extinct. -lizzy raupp

    I think that we should take this issue more seriously, Ivory is valuable but so are elephants. We should make sure that instead of taking ivory from living animals we can take it maybe after they pass away or we can just use synthetic materials. Lilly Pearson

    It's really sad that people are harming these animals for no reason. I hope in the future people stop doing this because we are decreasing the population of elephants.

    Elephants have been a high priced on the market forever, but the wasteful use of these poachers is not okay, this issue could be easily fixed if for one, people stopped being so greedy, and two we just use synthetic ivory. This would solve a lot.-shamus landry

    I feel disgusted that Ivory is becoming such a big product even though it involves murder of an endangered species.(Ian Noedel)

    One that that I did not know before is that often ivory from elephants tusks is in many materials that people use. These include piano keys, and even helmets. If we could eliminate ivory from these items this could help reduce the need for tusks.- Fagan O'Connor

    After some research, I've found that at the turn of the 20th century, there was a few million African elephants, and now there's about 450,000-700,000 left. -Tori Favazza https://defenders.org/wildlife

    It is sad because the elephants did niot do anything to the humans and the humans are just taking everything away from the elephants and the humans are giving them nothing in return.

    Poaching elephants is something that should be shamed on! they are living creatures and tasking their tusks for no reason should not be what we do !

    Elephants are very smart creatures, killing them is killing one of the most developed animals in the world.

    I have no idea why folk think it would be a good idea to kill the big guys and we may not know it yet but here for some reason they could be here to fix something on the Earth or some thing.

    Elephants are very intelligent and exotic creature.Keeping this sport going isn't going to do anything but drive them to extinction. If it stops now we can possible grow the population back to a more stable amount.-Tamara Harmon
