Global crime syndicates profit from a new contraband. This is the startling truth behind Black Market, by Ben Davies, with photographs by Patrick Brown. Featuring over 100 heart-wrenching images, the book provides a compelling picture — in words and pictures — of why action and awareness are vital to stem the wholesale massacre of the Asian region's once abundant wildlife before it is too late.
Following in the footsteps of celebrity advocates Jackie Chan, Michelle Yeoh, and Angelina Jolie, Davies and Brown expose the unsettling truth about the cruel exploitation and bureaucratic indifference surrounding the multibillion-dollar underground industry that drives wildlife depletion.
Includes: - Over 100 gripping black and white and color photographs with never-before-seen aspects of the illegal trade
- Up-close photojournalism uncovering illegal activities of poachers, traders and wildlife enforcement agencies
- Heroic tales of impassioned conservation efforts and the valiant individuals and organizations battling to save the world’s precious wildlife heritage
- Eyewitness accounts follow the trail of illegal wildlife trading through Asia and the West
- Renowned actors including Jackie Chan, and Angelina Jolie add their voices to the cause.
