Should Endangered Species be Hunted


Black rhinos are a endangered species and are being conserved in Africa. Rhinos are being poached for there horns which are used in some countries and are highly valued. Black rhinos are still hunted by trophy hunters in Africa which pay thousands to hunt them. One hunter from Texas bill $350,000 to go hunt black rhino in Africa. That money payed thought is used to help pay for the conservation of the black rhino. The money pay for ranger that protect the rhino and also for place that take care of the black rhinos. And the rhino that are killed are rhinos that are killing other rhinos or rhinos that are old and can't reproduce anymore. The animals that are harvested are studied to make sure that they are not harvesting animals that can help the herd grow. Without hunters helping in the conservation efforts many of the endangered animals still being hunted wouldn't be doing as successful if hunter weren't their to help. So hunting of endangered animals isn't bad as long as it is regulated and studied carefully so that the herd is not effected  in a bad way when the animals are being harvested. Also, the animals harvested aren't left there to rot the whole animal is used. Usually the meat is given to the local tribes and native people that have little food so many people benefit from the hunting of the animals including endangered animals.

  2. Endangered animals shouldn't be hunted because hunting them will cause the species to go extinct. The animals that should be hunted are the overpopulated species.

  3. In my opinion, endangered species should be protected instead of hunted for selfish reasons. Love the info you give on black rhinos and what they are hunted for
