Question

Poa.ching is the ille.g.al hunting, capturing, and often killing of wild animals. It has been done for a number of reasons, including claiming the land for human use, but recently, the ill.egal act is being done for other ridi.culous motives, especially the desire for rare animal products such as ivory, fur, organs, skin, bones, or teeth.

For in.stance, the rhino has been hunted because some believe its horn has medicinal value. It is so serious that today, the rhino is critically enda.ngered with the Black Rhino’s population decreasing by 97.6% since 1960. Other animals, such as the tiger are killed for their organs, pelt.s, and bones for medical and ae.sthetic reasons.
