Investigating the traffic of animals | TF1 | Reportages
In France, more than one in two households has a pet: they would be 61.6 million ! Companions who are not immune to trafficking : clandestine farms , illegal imports, animal theft or exploitation of protected species. The market of alive animals is so lucrative that it generates a black market, where all shots are allowed . And wild species are particularly threatened today : snakes, turtles, birds or spiders, to supply the market of Nps ( New Pets). Each year, 38 million animals are taken away from their natural environment.
