Poaching is the act of illegally killing an animal. The very prominent subject of poaching is the rhino, some species of which are now virtually extinct due to extensive illegal hunting. However, many other animals are also poached. For example, elephants are poached for the ivory in their tusks. Tigers are poached as trophy animals or for traditional medicine. Sea turtles and lemurs also suffer a similar fate for similar reasons.

The poaching of these animals has driven their population into corners, where they face imminent extinction. Although rehabilitation efforts are extensive, it is unlikely that the populations of these animals will recover unless the poachers are stopped first.

Dolphins are able to sleep without drowning because they have gills, like fish do. have a special opening that allows air in but
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

They sleep on just one side of their brain at a time

Explanation:

Dolphins are different from fishes that can breathe underwater.

It is necessary for them to get to the surface of the water at intervals to breathe air.

While sleeping, dolphins allows one hemisphere of their brains fall asleep while the other half is fully conscious. This means that If the left brain is sleeping, the right eye stays open and if the right brain is sleeping, the left eye stays open.

This happens so they always know when it's time to surface and breathe and when to escape when there is trouble.
