The scarcity of tigers and African elephants is more and
more serious. They are endangered because poachers hunt
them in order to sell tiger pelts and elephant ivory.
At least 4,000 elephants are killed each year in order to
meet the global demand for ivory, which is used to make
carvings, jewelry and other products although it is illegal to
sell ivory since 1989 anywhere.
“ Americans should be aware that there is still a problem
with elephant poaching and loss to the illegal ivory trade,”

Ginette Hemley, Fund’s vice president for species
conservation, told The Washington Post in September. And
so our message is “ Don’t buy it , and don’t take that
chance”.
A Wildlife Fund report states that the United States seized
8,300 illegal ivory items between 1995 and 2002. Each week
there are about 1,000 ivory auctions, the report said.
As for tigers, their parts are used in traditional Chinese
medicine. Tiger bones are used as a pain reliever in
traditional medicine. Even tiger’s whiskers are sold because
some people in Asia think they are a good-luck charm – like
a rabbit’s foot in the United States. “ Part of our job is
education,” said Professor Dillon. “ The other part is law
enforcement. So we have more than one strategy.”
