The detrimental effect depends what you're poaching, but it's never good. Hunting is an effective means for managing game animals and poaching is the act of taking game animals outside of dedicated seasons or killing a non-game animal that isn't considered a pest. Pests can be killed by anyone any time and often by just about any method. Hunting seasons are arranged to protect the mating and gestation periods of game animals. Bag limits are put in place to protect the overall population of game animals. When people poach, aside from being a criminal act, it's a disservice to the species they are poaching and if the animal is endangered, it contributes toward extinction.

∙ 13y agothe effect poaching has on animal extinction is around 72%. the other 38% is the environment. The animals that are close to extinction are elephants,dinosaurs, dodo birds, hookworms and others. The poachers kill animals lots of poachers only like particular animals. For example they like elephants for there trusses so they can make ivory, trombones and jewelry

Wiki User
∙ 13y agoWell, if poaching is the cause of extinction for a particular animal, any animal, the food chain would eventually be ruined. I'm pretty sure that counts as a threat to biodiversity.
