HUNTING OF ENDANGERED ANIMALS IN TRINIDAD BY:CHERNYCE TOOLSIE

THE SCARLET IBIS  THE SCARLET IBIS IS TRINIDAD’S NATIONAL BIRD.IT IS PROTECTED HOWEVER IT IS STILL SHOOT FOR ITS MEAT, THE SCARLET IBIS IS ALSO CONSIDERED A PEST HENCE MOST PEOPLE CHOOSE TO KILL IT. PEOPLE WHO HUNT DO NOT ALLOW THE SCARLET IBIS TO REPRODUCE AS THEY HUNT THEIR EGGS AS WELL.TORURISM ANS MAN’S ENCRAOCHMENT ON THE SCALET IBIS’S HABITAT WHICH IS THE CARONI SWAMP HAS LED TO A DECREASE IN THE BIRDS AS WELL AS THE EXPLOTITION OF THEM TO FORGIENERS. THE HUNTING LAWS OF TRINIDAD DO NOT FULLY WELL PROTECT THESE BIRDS BUT ALLOW TO BE ENDANGERED AND WOULD SOON BECOME EXTINCT.

THE COCRICO  THE COCRICO IS ALSO ONE OF TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO’S NATIONAL BIRDS.THEY LOCALLY RESIDE IN TOBAGO AND ARE FOUND IN THE MOUNTAIN AREAS AND SEA PORT AREAS AS WELL.IT JUST LIKE THE SCARLET IBIS IS HUNTED FOR ITS MEAT.SOME SAY THAT THE COCRICO IS A PEST TO IT’S NATION PEOPLE AND AGRICULTURIST SO THEY UTILIZE THE BIRD FOR HUMAN BENEFITS.

PORCUPINE  THE PROCUPINE IS KNOW FOR ITS SHORT DENSE HAIRS AROUND THE BODY.THE PORCUPINE IS MOSTLY FOUND IN THCIK FORESTED AREAS. IF A HUNTER FINDS THIS ANIMAL WANDERING, LAZILY IN THE FOREST, THE PORCUPINE IS MORE LIKELY TO BE KILLED FOR IT MEAT.PORCUINES ARE ARBOREAL, MEANING THAT THEIR HABITAT IS FORESTED AREAS AND WITH MAN’S CRUELTY TOWARDS THE TREES AND ENCROAHMENT AND ESTABLISHMENTS WOULD MEAN THAT IF THE TREES GO SO WOULD THE PORCUPINE.THEY AREN’T EXACTLY LAWS THAT PROTECT THIS CREATURE JUST MERELY PEOPLE WHO CARE AND RESUCE THEM WITH EVER RESOURCES THEY HAVEIN ORDER ENSURE THEY’RE EXISTENCE.

RED HOWLER  THE LARGEST NEW WORLD MONKEYS WITH ITS WHOLE BODY COVERED IN CORSE HAIR EXCEPT FOR ITS FACE.THE RED HOWLER MONKEYS LIVE IN THE FORESTED AREAS OF CHAGUARAMAS,CENTRAL RANGE SANCTUARY AND MANY OTHER HIGHLY FORESTED AREAS.THEY TRAVEL IN LARGE GROUPS AND THE MALE MONKEYS MAKE A NOISE TO CLAIM IT’S TERRITORY.HUNTERS SOMETIMES SHOOT THIS ANIMAL FOR HUMAN COMSUPTION AND TO FEED HUNTING DOGS.THIS ALSO LIKE THE PORCUPINE IS ARBOREAL.THE RED HOWLERS CAN BECOME EXTINCT IN MANY WAYS, ONE BEING THE YELLOW FEVER DISEASE IN WHICH IT KILLS OUT MOST THE RED HOWLER MONKEYS.

LEATHERBACK TURTLES  THE LEATHER BACK TURTLES ARE VERY ENDANGERED AND ARE CLOSELY ON THE ROAD TO EXTINCTION.THIS TURTLE IS MOST IMPORTANT TO TRINIDAD AS IT IS A DOMINANT GROUND FOR THE CREATURE, AS THEY PREFER TO NEST IN THE TROPICS.THEY USUALLY EAT JELLY-FISH BUT CAN SOMETIMES MISTAKE PLASTIC BAGS FOR THEIR FOOD, WHICH WHEN CONSUMED BY THE TURTLES CAN KILL THEM.THE LEATHERBACKS’ MEAT IS SAID TO BE VERY GOOD TO EAT AND THEY ARE SOMETIMES USED AS BAIT, ALL THIS IN TURN LEADS TO THEIR ENDANGERMENT AND SOON THEIR EXTINCTION.PERSONS WHO POACH, COLLECTS THE TURTLE’S EGGS AND USE IT TO MAKE ORNAMENTS. THE HUNTING LAWS FOR THIS ANIMAL IS VERY STRICT, HUNTERS TEND TO STEAL THEIR EGGS OR KILL THEM WHEN THEY APPROACH SORE TO LAY THEIR EGGS. LEATHERBACKS AREN’T TO LUCKY WHEN IT COMES TO REPRODUCTION AS MEAT EATING BIRDS ARE PRONE TO EATING THE CREATURE’S EGGS.

LOGGERHEAD TURTLES  LOGGERHEAD TURTLES ARE JUST AS IMPORTANT,THOUGH THEY ARE MORE PRSERVED THAN LEATHERBACK TURTLES.LOGGERHEAD TURTLES ARE FOUND IN COASTAL BAYS NOT TOO SHALLOW WATERS,THEY ARE ALSO FOUND IN STREAMS.THE TURTLE IS SOMETIMES UNINTENTIOMALLY HUNTED BY FISHERMAN BUT SOMETIMES ARE.FISHERMEN WHO INTENTIONALLY CATCH THESE TURTLES EXPORT THEIR MEAT AS FILLETS. LOGGERHEAD TURTLES DO NOT REPRODUCE AS OFTEN WHICH WOULD INCREASE THEIR ENDANGERMENT AND THEIR ROAD TO EXTINCTION.
