The poaching of bears for their bile trading is increasing considerably due to the healing properties attributed to this substance, reported today the conservation group Traffic Southeast Asia. Bear bile is highly prized in traditional Chinese medicine because of the belief that its use alleviates ailments of throat, muscle aches, hemorrhoids and even epilepsy.
Traffic investigators, an organization based in Malaysia, found evidence of illegal business in twelve of the thirteen Asian countries studied, although China is by far the main offender. Although he is allowed for sale in China and Japan, the treaty on International Trade in Endangered Species prohibits cross-border business of bear bile, a standard that is repeatedly mocked.
The most endangered species are the Asiatic black bear and the sun, both in danger of extinction.
