GIVEN BELOW IS THE THEME BASED RESEARCH ON A ISSUE / PROBLEM :



Elephant poaching deaths reach tipping point in Africa

Africa's elephants have reached a tipping point: more are being killed

each year than are being born, a study says.

Researchers believe that since 2010 an average of nearly 35,000 elephants have been killed

annually on the continent.They warn that if the rate of poaching continues, the animals could be

wiped out in 100 years. They are killed for illegal trading of their tusks , which is used to make

various ornaments , cutlery , etc . The illegal trade in elephant tusks has soared in recent years,

and a kilogram of ivory is now worth thousands of dollars. Much of the demand has been driven

by a rapidly growing market in Asia.The researchers have found that between 2010 and 2013,

Africa lost an average of 7% of its entire elephant population each year.Because elephant births boost the population by about 5% annually, this means that overall more of the animals are

being killed than are being born. Julian Blanc, who also worked on the study, from the

Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (Cites),

said: "If this is sustained, then we will see significant declines over time and that will be a

dramatic loss.” "There are still healthy growing populations in parts of Africa, Botswana for

example. But in other places the poaching levels are devastatingly high, and that is particularly

the case in Central Africa."In Central Africa it is estimated that elephant numbers have fallen by

about 60% in a decade.
