From the Wildlife Justice Commission series Wildlife Kingpin, comes part two of Operation Dragon: The Trap is Sprung. The trap laid by our investigators is sprung on traffickers of endangered turtles and tortoises in East and Southeast Asia. Discover how the information we provided to law enforcement led to successful raids and arrests of high-level traffickers. Operation Dragon also resulted in the rescue of more than 6,000 freshwater turtles and tortoises, including threatened species such as the black spotted turtle and the Indian star tortoise.
Thanks for listening! To read more about our investigation visit www.wildlifejustice.org and read our report Operation Dragon: Revealing new evidence on the scale of corruption and trafficking in the turtle and tortoise trade.
