Ellis, one of the world's foremost experts in wildlife extinction, brings his alarm that trade in animal parts for traditional Chinese medicine is a leading cause of species endangerment in Asia, and poaching is increasing at an alarming rate. He describes what has been done successfully, and what can and must be done to save these animals or, sadly, today's children will witness the extinction of tigers, rhinos, and moon bears in their lifetime.
