If an animal or any species becomes extinct it can put the food chain out of order. Slowly‚ everything starts to fall apart because of that one specie or animal

This risk of extinction is already ongoing with the increase of poaching due to high international ivory traffic. This poaching obliges elephants to find refuge near humans’ settlement; Central Africa is maybe the last refuge for forest elephants against poaching (Breuer‚ Maisels‚ & Fishlock‚ 2016). This situation pushes the classification of forest elephant as an endangered species (Blanc‚ 2008). Even though this
