This week for my blog I am going to be talking about elephant poaching. Lately the price of elephant ivory has dropped making it therefore more acsessable to people. What poaching is the killing of animals for a specific body part to sell it. They kill these elephants just for their ivory. Ivory is usually used for jewelry. Ivory is in high demand and therefore theses people are killing all of the elephants. Elephants are becoming endangered due to the fact that people want them for their horns. This is a senseless act that people are doing simply for the money. Their are a lot of other ways to make money and people are choosing to do this and it is down right terrible. Elephants are beautiful and majestic who are sweet at heart. They do not need to be poached rather people should make more jewlery out of metal. This way everyone wins. Elephants are beautiful and do not need to be extinct in the near future or ever. Therefore the people that are poaching animals should be imprisoned and made to pay a fine because these people are getting away with killing theses sweet animals. Overall I do not believe this is right and just. These animals are getting killed for no good reason not that there is ever a good reason. Anyway is short elephants should not be poached or any animal for that matter. It is just plain wrong and sad to think that babies are getting taken away from the families. There mothers are being taken away from mothers. Just think if your mom or died died how would you feel. That sad feeling is the feeling these elephants feel when there mom or dad or brother or sister gets taken away from them.https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/29/world/africa/ivory-elephants-china.html?module=WatchingPortal®ion=c-column-middle-span-region&pgType=Homepage&action=click&mediaId=thumb_square&state=standard&contentPlacement=5&version=internal&contentCollection=www.nytimes.com&contentId=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nytimes.com%2F2017%2F03%2F29%2Fworld%2Fafrica%2Fivory-elephants-china.html&eventName=Watching-article-click
