🌿 MarKhor - Why is our national pride, why is it in danger? 🐐🇵🇰 🐐🇵🇰. steem.ofanimals: 10.00%
Greetings,
Markhur, the national animal of Pakistan, is not only a beautiful symbol of our natural heritage, but it also plays an important role in maintaining the environment of the mountainous areas. Its stature is a symbol of high, curious horns and alert style of our national dignity, courage, and sustainability. But sadly, today this great animal is on the verge of collapse. We have to wonder why we did this with our national pride.
🌍 What dangers do the generation of Markur faces?
The greatest enemy of Markhur has become man himself. Hunting, destruction of housing space, and environmental changes are in serious danger. The horns of Markhur are a precious treasure for victims. Some hit it for trophic haunting, some use its horns in the wrong belief of medicine. All of them are causing the destruction of this innocent animal.
🔫 victim - a serious threat
Illegal hunting and irresponsible trophy are playing an important role in the genocide of Hunting Markhur. Although in some areas, trophy hunting is allowed under a license, it is often out of control. Local hunters or foreign tourists target markur by the force of money, and as a result, their population is declining rapidly.
🏔-- Damage to natural housing
Human intervention in the mountainous areas, such as forest harvesting, lack of pastures, and increasing population are restricting the natural residences of Markhur. When they have no choice to eat or the hunters get closer to them, they either die of hunger or become victims.
💡 How can we protect them?
Now the question arises: How can we save this rare animal? Fortunately the answer is yes - we can all win its survival battle.
The first step is awareness. Unless ordinary people know that the generation of Markhur is in danger, no improvement is possible. We have to run awareness campaigns through schools, colleges, social media, and community programs.
- Legislature and strictly executed
Hunting hunting should be completely banned, and the laws that are already present will have to be strictly enforced. Strict legal action should be taken against the hunters and set examples that become a lesson for others.
- To establish a secure area
Conservation zones should be created to live in the march, where neither hunters can enter nor human intervention. National Parks and safe havens are the best way for this purpose.
- Adding local communities
If locals are involved in the safety of this animal, the chances of success increase manifold. They should be convinced that the safety of Markhor is also essential for their future. If they keep this animal alive, tourism will increase, employment will be created, and the natural balance will remain.
The protection of the march - a national duty
We must remember that a national animal is not just a sign, but it is part of our identity. The safety of Markhur is not just the government, we all have a duty. Let's make a pledge from today that we will not only protect the march, but also inform others about it. Tell our children, our friends, our society that if we do nothing today, our children will be able to see Markhur in the books tomorrow.
