why trophy hunting should be band

For this term our school has speech competitions. My speech topic is Why trophy hunting should be ban but the overall topic is Actions speak louder than words. Here is my speech:


Treat others the way you want to be treated is a world known
quote and I can't see why we do it differently to animals when
we trophy hunt! Recently I wrote a powerful letter to Donald
Trump because he lifted the ban for trophy hunting just
because his son likes it. I thought this was disgraceful
behaviour so I acted on it! Here are 3 reasons why killing
animals for fun should be banned!

What have they ever done to you
Not everyday you get lions, tigers, elephants and rhinoceros
bombarding into you house and killing you, but that is
what we do to them everyday.
Humans are by far the biggest threat to animals they
are magnificent creatures and I am at a loss to understand
why anyone would want to hurt or kill a defenceless animal.

Eat the Meat
It’s alright to kill an non endangered animal if you are going to
eat the meat.
I have never seen elephant meat on the self at Pack’n’ save!
For Duck shooting more than 1 million ducks are killed each
year and 20% - 40% of the ducks are killed with shotgun
pellets and are never retrieved and are just left and die a
lingering death. Same with fishing games. They catch huge
beautiful fish and hang it up in the sun just to look at they
don't even eat the meat!

Animal Extinction
Did you know 100 million animals are killed anuly just with
trophy hunting! And 70,000 of them are killed by Americans!
Lots of amazing creatures are getting extinct because of trophy
hunting. There is only 3 female white rhino left in the whole
world because poaches and trophy hunters killed them all!

 In my opinion trophy hunting is stupid! All it does is kill
beautiful and rare animals to extinction. Research has
shown that people trophy hunt to show off and make
money. This is a really bad excuse. Birds, elephants,
lions, wolves, tigers and much more animals deserve a
life but we just  take that away from them. Over all

I think that trophy hunting should be ban!

The New Book For Chapter Chat

Image result for the little house on the prairie the bookThe new book for Chapter chat is the "Little house on the Prairie." As a class we have read about 5 chapters already this term. It is about a family moving across the states on the prairie so far they have arrived where they are going to build their little house. They traveled through deep rivers, up steep river banks, over hills and across the huge prairie.  If you don't know what a prairie is, it is a huge flat grass lands taking up about 3 states in America.
