The chinese and their idiotic traditional 'medicine' are endangering so many animals that it's not even close. They're actively encouraging poaching.

Whereas in the US, we simply exterminated most of the animals because they were considered a nuisance. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Bison_skull_pile_edit.jpg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Bison_skull_pile_edit.jpg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passenger_pigeon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passenger_pigeon There are no more wolverines in the wolverine state. There are no california bears in california. And of course we almost wiped out the american bald eagle. If china wants to catch up to the US or Europe, they had to do a lot more exterminating.
