Stop Global Animal Poaching and Animal Trafficking

The Issue

Pangolins the most trafficked mammal that you've never heard of, which have had there hard scaly skin boiled off for meat, and traditional medicine as explained in this article. (https://www.cnn.com/interactive/2014/04/opinion/sutter-change-the-list-pangolintrafficking/index.html#:~:text=Pangolins%20%2D%2D%20two%20species%20of,for%20their%20blood%2C%20which%20is "Cecil the lion, one of Zimbabwe’s best loved wild animals, was slain last week at the hands of unscrupulous safari guides and, it’s claimed, a crossbow-happy dentist from Minnesota" (https://www.pri.org/stories/2015-07-30/6-endangered-animals-poaching-might-take-us-forever ). Reasons like these give me reason to want to stop poaching. I care because poaching and illegal animal trade happen all over the world. Help stop these terrible people with awareness and prevention in all of our communities and countries. "WILD ANIMALS ARE being poached on a massive scale, with millions of individual animals of thousands of species worldwide killed or captured from their native habitats. Poaching poses a growing threat to elephants, rhinos, and other charismatic animals, as well as to smaller and more obscure creatures, like certain lizards and monkeys." (Actman, National Geographic). I care because one day I want to save enough money and possibly see the 1,000,000's of species on our planet before I die. But if all these terrible acts and events continue then there won't be much of a world full of life for future generations to see. There are already examples of animal going extinct from poaching and trophy hunting. Animals like Western Black Rhinos, and now millions of Pangolins have been taken from there homes since 2000. Help me create awareness and stop these terrible events as much as we can!
