Why is poaching a concern? What can be done to “turn the tide” against poaching? I am writing this essay to explain or answer these two questions that are being asked. Some things that I think would help with poaching are maybe gathering people up to patrol the area where poaching is at its strongest, and then I think it will ease down the number of kills occurring among elephants. Another idea that I think could help resolve poaching is making traps to capture poachers that attempt to poach elephants

Hawaii Turtle Tours takes you for a tour around the island of Oahu to see some pretty amazing things. However, most people don’t know about the trouble that the islands face. The islands are home to some amazing and unique plants and animals. Yet, today it is estimated that there approximately 90% of these species are invasive or foreign. Leaving only 10% of native and endemic species left on the island. This means that of this small percentage, these plans and animals are found nowhere else in the

It is heartbreaking to see how human greed is getting in the way and destroying the life of many chimpanzees in the wild. By clearing the forests to make way for paved roads, chimpanzees are becoming easier targets to poachers and the cutting down of trees for timber, is wrecking their habitat. Jane Goodall has been studying wild chimpanzees for decades and has certainly discovered a lot of interesting facts about their behavior. Goodall is now an advocate for ecological preservation and has started

Zoos are the places where animals are kept. Some people argue that animals shall not be kept in zoos as they deserve freedom. Zoos cannot provide them with enough space, therefore, they cannot run around so as to grow up freely. On the other hand, some people argue that animals should be kept in zoos. Nowadays, forests and mountains have been cut down by people. If we leave animals alone, they might have nowhere to find food and nowhere to live. It is for the sake of the animals themselves that

Educational learning, and to be admired. Big cats are to be left alone in the wilderness, they are very overprotective, they cause financial hardship, they’re not like the cuddling house pets they will kill you, they do not like being away from other wildlife, and they carry very harmful diseases. Humans do not understand the desires or needs of an exotic animal, so all exotic animals should be ban from private ownership. According to the article “Here’s Why Exotic Animals Belong in the Wild, not

The article “Wild Animals Are Meant to Be Wild” by Mary Hopkins is about claims that zoo is wrong and gives an example of Maggie the elephant. Maggie lived in the zoo because outside is freezing. But, the elephant could not do miles on the treadmill for elephant. Even though zoos are the best conditions, zoos cannot be wild. The cages of the animals became stronger, but the management of the animals became poor. As a result, many animals in the zoo were stressed or killed. Artificial environments

parastatal organizations, the deregulation and the opening up of trade and banking, foreign exchange deregulation, and tax reform (Benjaminsen et al., 2013). The neoliberal processes have a long term history of heavily impacting negatively on citizens and the environment. The economy of Tanzania is mostly from wildlife tourism and game hunting. The neoliberal acts in these context comes to play when the land sustaining the wildlife is situated among villages where citizens live. Impacts of the conservation

When humans and nature come together, they either coexist harmoniously because nature's inhabitants and humans share a mutual respect and understanding for each other, or they clash because humans attempt to control and force their ways of life on nature. The poems, "The Bull Moose" by Alden Nowlan, "The Panther" by Rainer Maria Rilke, "Walking the Dog" by Howard Nemerov, and "The Fish" by Elizabeth Bishop, describe what happens when humans and nature come together. I believe that when humans and

has in the past, been seen as a mark of human civilization. In the United States, our progress is often measured by growth and development, but should this be re-examined? There are many opinions on the subject of urban sprawl and its effects on wildlife, but one thing is for certain, we are expanding. From 1955 to 2005, urban and suburban areas grew by 300%, however, the population only increased by 75% over the same period (Ewing, Kostyack and Chen). According to NatureServe, a non-profit conservation

Animals play an important role of human life. Wild animal is a kind that normally lives in the wild, for example: elephants, tigers, rhinos and many others. They live in the wild with spacious and natural environment, however many humans kept them in the zoo, as an attraction for the sake of the money. They didn’t think of the wild animals habitat, and there are some problems arise from keeping them in cages. The shock of being in captivity would depress the animals; they would even act hysterically
