Just like human trafficking, the trafficking and smuggling of wildlife makes money for the organized crime members.
One elephant sells for $28,000 according to the black market database Havocscope.
A gorilla is bought and sold for $8,000.
If you want a komodo dragon, you can buy one for $30,000.
The wildlife trade makes a lot of money for gangs across the world. Not only do they make a lot of money, but they also are doing harm to the environment. Crimes like these should be stopped before our world becomes destroyed.
