Drones in Africa
Animal poaching is a big problem in Africa and it has been a long hard road to figure out what to do. Many people think they have found the solution, unmanned drones. The drones are capable of protecting many animals. However, the animal the focus in is the rhino.The rhino is a commonly poached animal because of its tusks. Although, it might seem like an animal that can protect itself it really does not stand a chance against a gun. That's where the drones come in. They keep a camera on them so if one of them gets poached they know where and when and can find the people. However, this doesn't solve all the problems of poaching, but it's a good start! What do you think about drones stopping poachers?

I thinks it's good that they have drones. I hope it helps stop poaching and that it keeps the rhinos safe. What is a drone first of all? Second what made you choose this topic? Is there any other uses for the drone. I think you did a good job and your topic was really interesting. Does it stop poachers in the act or does it help caught poachers. Where would drones be placed if they were to help stop poaching.
ReplyDeleteI think it is a good idea to have little drones go around and catch criminals that try to kill rare [or almost] animals like elephants and other rare animals but the only problem with it is that they don't have a warning system like a laser but if someone is trying to use the restroom and right then someone kills an animal then the animal will still be dead.
