∙ 10y agoAccording to the BBC, over 600,000 elephants were poached in the 1970s and 1980s.
A ban on ivory trade was instituted and this helped to rescue the species from certain extinction. Unfortunately, poaching has been on the increase in the past few years.
According to Spiegel Online:
"An estimated 23,000 elephants were illegally slaughtered in 2006 simply so the ivory can be ripped from their jaws and sold on the black market."

∙ 13y agoThat would be a hard one to answer since many animals don't require a license and some states don't make you document how many animals you kill in a year. It might be easier to answer how many animals lifes are saved each year by hunters. If you let the animals breed out of control, they destroy there own habitat which will result in mass numbers of animals dying each year.
