and it's not just china. many other asian countries, such as vietnam, consume illegal animal parts for traditional medicine and enable the trade of such things in china. couple all of that with socioeconomic struggles in africa that creates a willingness and incentive to supply, and you have a problem that won't disappear until the animals disappear. in half a century, poaching, human encroachment on habitats, and climate change will see many animals (rhinos, tigers, polar pears, certain orca populations, etc.) disappear. humans are not organized enough to stop this.
