Rules

In my opinion many of the rules that are in place that govern behavior of the targets of nature and animal conservation are good. Such as the stopping of drilling for oil in the arctic national wildlife refuge, or poaching being illegal. Rules such as this are put in place to prevent animals from becoming endangered or extinct. These rules are put in place to protect our environment. Generally they do accomplish their purpose, but sometimes it is hard to enforce them. Such as illegal poaching. In Africa elephants are poached for their ivory tusks. Although this is illegal, it is hard to enforce because there is always a chance of someone breaking the law and not getting caught. Although the number of elephants being killed is decreasing, it is still being done, because there is not enough man power to enforce the laws in place.
