Slaughter of African Elephants

   Slaughter of African Elephant by Samantha Strindberg and Fiona Maisels is Mainly about hunters killing elephants for their tusk and the author don't agree with it.

   The quote that stood out to me was when the authors said, "There is nothing a mother elephant will do for her infant, but even she cannot protect it from bullets." This quote stood out to me because hunter are killing these animals for their tusk and not think about them animals are like humans, they have feelings.

    I honestly think that elephant have humans qualities because for the mother elephant to protect her infant from guns is the same thing a human mother would do to their son or daughter. This article is very good and well spoken. Hunter should be thrown in prison for killing elephants for their tush.

In conclusion, hunters killing animals period is wrong and they should be handled but the government. What is going throw their skull when they kill elephants? Do they enjoy it? Do they feel some type of way afterward? It's sick.

  1. This is a good start, but short. You need to include more details from the article and say more about possible solutions.

    They don't kill for pleasure, after all; they kill for money (and they are very poor). 75
