Description

In this National Geographic News article, read about how the Internet has opened up a bustling venue for illegal trade in live gorillas, baboons, and other protected species. A report by the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW) reveals that thousands of wild animals and animal parts--from live chimpanzees to whole elephant tusks--are illegally offered for sale online every day. Links to other stories, photos, videos and Web sites are also found on this page.
