Wildlife for sale

E Martin et al. Biologist (London). 2000 Feb.

Abstract

Myanmar, famous for the smuggling of opium and gemstones, is losing much of its wildlife to illegal traders. In 1998, a survey of goods for sale in two border towns showed a thriving trade in body parts from some of the world's most endangered species.
