Ban on selling wildlife may fuel trade

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070531/ap_on_sc/wildlife_trafficking

BANGKOK, Thailand - Banning the trade in endangered wildlife can actually result in increased trade in the animals and their parts, a report published Thursday said.
No $h!t!

Banning guns, drugs, alcohol, smoking, foie gras...they all make the banned thing MORE DESIRABLE.

Of course, I don't actually expect the proponents of any of these bans to get this.
