The python trade is worth $1 billion every year. Too bad a lot of that profit comes from illegal (and often cruel) poaching of snakes.

Dear Annisa,

There are systems in place like quotas and trade bans to protect pythons from illegal poaching. But here's the thing…

They don't work.

With growing demand for python-skin handbags and other fashion items, illegal trade is on the rise too. According to the International Trade Center the python trade is worth $1 billion every year. But many of those profits come from wild animals whose skins are laundered using false permits.

It's clear the existing laws aren't good enough. But experts think we can make a real dent in the illegal trade if the fashion industry starts sourcing the skins so it can prove to customers that their clothes and accessories aren't illegal.

Help pythons survive fashion: urge the industry to start tracing python skins.
