What the petition asks
Wild animals (such as leopards, tiger, crocodiles, turtles, bears and giant otters) are killed for their skin and fur to make profit. Their skins are used for unnecessary items such as clothing, shoes, handbags and accessories. We want this to be stopped.
We are a group of young people who are passionate about wild animals and want to stop poachers. We had a visit recently from the Schools' Education Officer from the UK Parlimentary Office. Previously, we have organised animal rescue club and raised money for the WWF.
