The U.S. assistant secretary of state for environmental affairs, Claudia McMurray, estimates that the wildlife trade is valued at anywhere from $10 to $20 billion a year. She says that, in addition to bringing animals, such as tigers and rhinos, to near extinction, the illegal trade also hurts African economies. "It's still a tremendous problem across Africa and around the world. And because there are so many countries in Africa that rely on wildlife for their livelihoods, we consider this issue to be extremely significant."

The illegal wildlife trade includes capturing and selling animals, such as cheetahs, for pets, and procuring and selling animal parts, such as tusks and tiger bone. The group says the trade is often closely linked to organized crime, and follows the same routes as those used to smuggle drugs and people.
