4Emily replied to 2Kaelyn's discussion Powerade vs Gatorade
"Gatorade and powerade taste the same to me. Powerade does leave an odd taste in my mouth so if I had to choose I would pick gatorade. They both hydrate you so I don't really prefer one over the other. "

As most people know, the elephant population is depleting at a consistent rate. Why is this happening? Every year, a minimum of 20,000 elephants are poached; meaning that they are illegally killed. Poachers trade ivory on the international market,…
