Focus Years: 2007 | Country: Kenya
Synopsis:
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. The report shows the reluctance of the global authorities such as CITES to fully investigate this trade and ensure that the apes currently in Egypt are confiscated and repatriated to their country of origin.
