Introduction in Poaching
Poaching is illegal against wildlife. Poaching is when people illegally kidnap or kill animals either on purpose or accident.
Wildlife officials or experts say that poachers kill thousands of animals every year. That is one reason why animals around the world are being endangered.
Poachers that have been caught are usually punished for their crimes and may go to court to decide if they’re guilty or not. Some people are threatening to throw these poachers in jail for their crimes. Or some people might want to kill them for it, but the government does not allow that.

Saving Endangered Animals
Poaching is still an active problem worldwide and people have come up with solutions on how to stop this crime. One solution is the forming of groups to help these animals. They go out and protect these animals in many ways as they can. These groups are sent out with advanced technology such as a GPS and terrain vehicles to search for any animals that are being poached. They might even look around the whole world to find these. Some groups just protect one species of an animal because they are being poached the most and need more protection.
Another solution is that animals are moved to national parks where they’re most likely to be safer there than in the wild where poachers can get to them. But some people have complained that poachers had gotten in and slaughtered the animal so the people have made their parks even safer to keep poachers out of their property.
The last solution is that poaching is a serious problem which needs to be dealt with, So it’s best to let other people know about it so they can help out with the wildlife. When some people have gained enough experience to know how to fight and protect an animal they join a group to help out. Lots of people have high hopes that they can restore the endangered animals back to its normal population. Over 9,000 should be at its perfect state.
Many people work to provide this livelihood so that the wildlife is not harmed in any way possible. Some people will do anything to bring the nature loving world we knew back to the way it was before poaching started spreading.
