Despite an international ban, the trade in endangered animals to the Middle East is flourishing. This exclusive report tracks the dealers, buyers and government officials who protect them.
In January 2005, a crate containing six baby chimpanzees and four monkeys was rescued from a flight from Cairo. The animals had been denied food and water for days and one soon died. Scouring flight records, animal investigators linked the shipment to a notorious wildlife smuggler. It's believed this smuggler traffics an average of 40 chimpanzees a year, bribing airport officials. Despite a wealth of evidence against her, she has never been prosecuted.

There is NO EXCUSE for this horror. As a compassionate and smart consumer, know where you 'stuff' comes from!
Please do not add to the environmental devastation and ethical atrocities taking place.
Climate change (global warming) already threatens these magnificent beings with extinction. Deforestation, mining and "exploration" in the DRC (& surrounding African nations) is driven by CONSUMERISM.
