Skin Deep
A briefing for the 57th meeting of CITES Standing Committee, 14-18 July 2008.
Undercover work in China in June 2008 found 14 shops offering Asian big cat skins for sale, including nine whole snow leopard skins, 13 whole leopard skins, five pieces of leopard skin trim and a whole tiger skin.
We call on China to tighten up enforcement against illegal big cat skin sales.
