Elephants are important to life because without them who what other animal wouldbe imp
Usually in mammals tusks are enlarged canine teeth but in elephants they are actually elongated incisors. Tusks are essentially no different from other teeth. A third of the tusk is actually hidden from view, embedded deep into the elephant's head. This part of the tusk is a pulp cavity made up of tissue, blood and nerves. The visible, ivory part of the tusk is made of dentine with an outer layer of enamel. Elephant ivory is unique which when viewed in cross-section reveals criss-cross lines that form a series of diamond shapes. Elephants tusk never stop growing so some old bulls display enormous examples. However the average size of tusks has decreased over the past hundred years because hunting elephants for their ivory has resulted in the 'big tusk gene' becoming increasingly rare.
Elephants are considered an endangered animals that could become extinct. One threat to the elephant is poaching. Elephants are killed for their tusk for the ivory trade, which is illegal.
An ivory statue is typically made from the tusks of elephants, which are poached for their ivory. This illegal poaching threatens the survival of elephant populations in the wild. It is important to discourage the trade of ivory products to protect these animals.
Poachers primarily use firearms such as rifles to kill elephants for their tusks. Some also use poison arrows or spears. These weapons are used to quickly kill the elephants and retrieve their valuable tusks.
Poachers have decimated the elephant populations where elephants have large tusks. They kills elephants for their tusks, which is known as ivory. The ivory trade is illegal except in countries like China. As elephants with big tusks are killed off by poachers, only elephants with small tusks or no tusks at all at left to mate and have offspring.
