Dealers now send out capture teams to get hold of babies to send them into emerging markets to an increasing number of new zoos and safari parks

It results in hundreds, if not thousands of apes being killed annually. Some ten chimps get killed to secure one live orphan.-Karl Ammann (interview on The Organic View)
