Slaughter of the African Elephants

 

In the article " Slaughter of the African Elephants " by Samantha Strindberg and Fiona Maisels they discusing how it is cruel how elephants are being killed just so people can use their tusk for things that worth money.

I think that people should not kill and harm the Elephants because they provide a lot of things for people and animals on earth, so why would we harm them if they didn't do anything to harm or hurt us people of America. The things that Elephants help people and animals out with are by helping maintain habitats, they help clean the air so that its easier for us to breathe.

" One of recently came face to face with this honor while walking through a forest in central Africa. The sickening stench provided the first warning. As the smell grew more pungent, the humming sound of death that surrounds the body of the dead elephant became more pronounced." This quote was in the article. This quote made me angry because of the fact that we are all gods creatures and they are killing Elephants to do this that you could do with wood or other materials instead of taking life away from an animal.

People should not want to kill for money. They shouldn't want to kill at all expecially if the animal they are killing, are doing things to help the earth and other things on earth.
