opinion
The photograph of the website of Operation Charm which is on this article gave a shock to me. The people remain clam around a dead tiger. I think that this photograph describes people’s indifference toward endangered animals. It was revealed that the endangered species are not well-known by the last discussion. I think that we should apply interest to this problem more. I also think that the U.K. should remake a law about the Chinese medicine better. In that way, they should check illegal Chinese medicines. Although I think that poaching endangered animals doesn’t run out, I hope that it will have dwindled.
