Wildlife Conservation (Shady Ramzy,Divergent)

  Through the ages, killing wild animals and destroying their habitats was a reality. But these crimes have increased significantly during the last decades which makes our ecosystem at the edge.

Well, Lets start with the beginning, in the ancient times, most people used to hunt just for their breakfast for their supper. It was "Hunting for survival". Even nowadays, the remained tribes only hunt to survive not to sell and make money.

I've a friend who has been to Morocco for a year. And while talking about his journey, he mentioned that,the Bedouin people in morocco's desert are used to being very careful while hunting gazelles, by avoiding hunting young gazelles and the pregnant females.

But nowadays everything has changed. Those rich humans go to wild areas to enjoy hunting the animals , they don't understand that, they kill souls, destroy lives. Just to have some fun!

In the future, due to these actions, Humans may live alone in this planet. Tigers these beautiful creatures, which are the most beloved around the world, are about to leave us. In 1900 there were about 100,000 tigers throughout their range. Today only about 3,000-4,000 exist in the wild. And some species have officially left us:
- South Chinese tiger : Extinct in the wild
- Caspian tiger : Extinct
- Javan tiger : Extinct
- Bali tiger : Extinct

By looking at some other numbers :
- 35,000 elephants are killed each year.
- 5,000% increase in rhino poaching in last 5 years ( 2013 record. )
- The lion population in Africa has been reduced by half since the early 1950s. Today, fewer than 21,000 remain in all of Africa.

Humans have to show some respect to the creatures which were here before us by hundreds of thousands of years.
