Elephants, Lions, Cheetahs, Leopards, and Gorillas are just some of the many animals that are poached on a regular basis. Almost any animal that can get an individual a large sum of money is at risk of being poached.

Why is poaching a threat to biodiversity?

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.
