Rachel Nuwer: The School for Wildlife Traffickers

Wicked Words - A True Crime Talk Show with Kate Winkler Dawson

About this episode

I’ve never interviewed someone about wildlife trafficking, but journalist Rachel Nuwer’s story for The Economist was so compelling that I wanted to explore it. It’s about an orphanage in Africa where kids are used as foot soldiers in an illegal animal and ivory smuggling operation. Rachel's article is called: The School for Wildlife Traffickers.
