Nobody's Safe From The Evil Of Money, Even The Animals

In the article" Slaughter of the Arfican Elephants" by Samantha Strindberg and Fiona Maisels tells readers a poignant fact about the African elehpants. African elephants are being slaughtered brutally for their tusks.
 62 percent of the elephants were gone from the African forest in a spand of 10 years. Elphants are being paoched for their ivory and mostly far east countries are bying the ivory. They are on a demand and the ivory is limtied making it more expensive. " An elphants tusks have become bling for consumers who have no idea or simply dont care that it was obtained by inflicting terror, horrendous pian and death..."

These elephants are being killed off from extention but they are a huge factor in the ecological sysem. The help habitats, trees, and biodiversity. The elphants are scared to roam far from the family which keeps them from spreading their natural gardening scale.

Even though the elphants are protected there are still paochers who have easy access and are easlit able to slaughter the elphants.The elphants are becoming slowly less and less if people continue to demand ivory.

In the article Samntha Stringberg and Fiona Maisels goes on to say that the elphants need more protection and for the police to follow the money laudering to stop the paoching business. This is happening in one of the continents that's considered to have the most povery in it's inner countries.

How can they afforrd more protection for ELEPHANTS when they cant even help their own people. Firt thing first there are problems way bigger in Africa that needs the police attenion like the trafficking of women and children. All the animals are important and we do need to stop the demand of ivory because this could not only hurt the animals but us also.

People who are buying the ivory are probably ignorant to the fact that people are brutally killing animals so we need to make it to their attention. As as conservation activist they need to raise the most awareness and get peoples attention the best way the can.
