There is a new wave of poaching fuelled by Chinese demand. The economy in China is growing and so is the middle class wealth. Ivory is seen as a luxury item and a status symbol, the demand for ivory has rocketed making it so valuable that there is now a poaching frenzy. If current demands are meet as they are today the elephant could be made extinct as early as ten years. This will result in huge numbers of Elephants being poached. If the demand stops so will the poaching. By signing this petition, which will be presented to the Chinese Embassy, you are showing your support in trying to stop the ivory trade and to put a stop to poaching. The more people that sign, the more hope of protecting elephants and rhinos. www.thepetitionsite.com/612/959/709/stop-china-wanting-more-ivory/
