Ecologists think that poachers are to blame for the global pandemic

On April 22nd the Earth Day is celebrated. This year the celebration marks its 50th anniversary. 

«People are now facing a global threat unknown for the humanity before. The pandemic has  definitely affected everyone and every sphere of life. But who or what is to blame? Although the primal source of COVID-19 hasn’t been found yet, the experts tend to think that it was transmitted to humains from wild bats via an intermediate link.  The outbreak of the disease was probably caused by illegal trade of wild animals, unreasonable intervention into their natural habitat and destruction of their environment in the different parts of the world. But animals are not to blame», - this is what specialists of the «Land of the leopard» national park think of the situation. 

Ecologists call for toughening anti poaching measures all over the world. The preservation of nature is an inalienable part of international security and humain well-being. Our future depends on all of us. It is important not only to preserve the planet for ourselves but also to make it better for our children.
