Ape trafficker arrested with 12 chimp skulls
Cameroon, 29 Mar 2016
An ape trafficker arrested with 8 chimp skulls, 3fresh chimpanzee heads and other contraband including an elephant tail. He was buying contraband from a wide ring of poachers who kill all kinds of protected species. He differs from the specialized traffickers as he sold various species. Once again fresh chimpanzee heads were recovered pointing to the parallel illicit trade in ape skulls alongside the bushmeat trade in apes.
