Locals in the poorest communities of the Amazon Rainforest buy and sell wild animals on the black market in order to mitigate their economic hardships. Many times, these animals are sold as pets. Although this type of trade is outlawed by the Peruvian government, many locals still engage with this illegal activity for economic gain. I teamed with locals to go deep into the poorest communities to capture the hidden secrets of this dark industry.

Filmed by anonymous team of locals using a smart phone.
