hunting and poaching
Hunting refers to the act of pursuing, capturing, or killing wildlife for sport, food, population control, or conservation efforts. It is generally regulated and legal, with hunters obtaining permits and following specific regulations. Poaching, on the other hand, is the illegal hunting, capturing, or killing of wildlife. It involves the unauthorized exploitation of animals, often for their valuable parts such as ivory, fur, or horns. Poaching threatens wildlife populations, disrupts ecosystems, and undermines conservation efforts.
