He and his friends: Johnny (Ralph Macchio), Dally (Matt Dillon), Two-Bit (Emilio Estevez), and Steve (Tom Cruise), and brothers, Darry (Patrick Swayze) and Soda (Rob Lowe), are always getting in fights with a gang called the Socs.

    Why Should Phoaching End In South Africa

    Recently, the body of what authorities suspect was a poacher was found eaten up by lions in South Africa last Friday. The man's body was discovered inside Ingwelala Private Nature Reserve, (which contains large numbers of the most poached animals- lion, leopard, rhinoceros, elephant and buffalo) a private game reserve near Kruger National Park, in northeastern South Africa. Because the man was intruding on the reserve and found with weapons, authorities believe he was there for poaching (National Geographic). Another reason why poaching should end is because the extinction on these animals would soon end the continuation of humanity. If the last elephant were to die there would be no natural repopulation- which leads to changes to the system, which would affect the animals and people that rely on this wilderness area. Poaching can affect the environment by depleting certain species of animals. It causes animals that are endangered to become extinct, thus creating a disruption in the food chain. Eventually, it will cause as a result new adaptations of animals, and/or species beyond human control (Poaching Crisis). Like for example if there lions that eat gazelles and they eat grass, and we killed off all of the lions then there wouldn't be as many predators to eat the gazelle and they will overpopulate. Then since there are more gazelles there will need to be more food to feed all of the gazelles, and then there won't be any grass left because the gazelles ate it all. But then all of the gazelles will die because there is no food to feed them so they are going to starve, so then we are left with nothing. This is exactly like that except there are humans involved and other animals that will die off because the food chain is…

    Endangered Animals

    There are around 41,000 endangered species, and around 16,000 of them are on the edge of extinction. There are many reasons for animals to go endangered, such as habitat loss, pollution, disease, predation, illegal killing, and poaching. Habitat loss happens by a mixture of things logging, agriculture, the building of roads and cities, and forest fires. Habitat loss affects China’s giant panda because of the expanding buildings in China. Pollution is affecting fish in lakes and streams because of acid rain. “Acid rains kill fish in lakes and streams by increasing the acidity of water” (Haluzan 2012). Poaching is killing rhinoceros by people killing them for their horns, to use as a dagger handle, or to be put in medicine. There are more animals being affected by these conditions, and these aren’t the only conditions animals on the endangered list are facing.…
