Poaching Essay

I picked the topic of poaching because I have an interest in animals and I don't think it is lawful for people to illegally hunt endangered animals. I learned a lot more about poaching than I knew before. Most people don't know what poaching is and what the terrible results can be: animal extinction. Yet some people just don't care.

Most of the class knew a lot about poaching, and some of them were pretty concerned about the topic. For example, on the first question, 86.7 of the grade knew what poaching was. Based on the results, I would say every 2 out of 3 people in the 5th grade knows and cares about the subject of poaching. The other 1 person either does not know as much, or doesn't care.

There isn't that much poaching in the U.S., so that's a sign we're getting better. But there are still thosands of people out there who hunt protected animals for their living. What I think we can do is write to the other countries and try to convince them to enforcde their laws better. The other thing is we could pray for the people who choose to violate this law. I had fun with this, and I hope everyone else did too.
