Sad but true, there is a lot of poaching going on around the world, with people seemingly unaware of the devastation that such an activity can lead to. This is an interesting subject. In terms of fish, Australia monitors 10% of the world's oceans and is protecting the patagonian toothfish from being 'poached' from these waters by various fishing fleets. Many fish species have become endangered through illegal fishing and over fishing. The image is reasonably good, however, I am not sure if it captures the subject well...
