Animal poaching is when an animal is killed illegally. This usually occurs when an animal possesses something that can be considered valuable such as its fur, ivory, or bones. Animal poaching has increased so much that at the beginning of the 20th century there were a few million African elephants and about 100,000 Asian elephants. However, there are now about about 450,000-700,000 African elephants and around 35,000-40,000 Asian elephants (“11 Facts About Poaching Animals,” n.d.). Upwards…

I was able to find this organization and make a personal connection with the children and with the people who are…

The help that Percy receives can be viewed by the readers as something that a hero…

That may be the future for car owners everywhere if restrictions on aftermarket parts grows anymore. Buying, owning, and driving a car has probably been high up on a list of…

(National Parks) In 1976, the breeding program was used to test how the Red Wolf would be affected after being reintroduced into the wild.
