                        Wildlife trafficking is a multibillion-dollar industry.

                        Vladimir,



                        In 2018, Facebook announced a goal to cut wildlife trafficking by 80% by 2020. While the social media site claims it has made progress, a new report by Avaaz shows Facebook remains a popular platform for cruel animal traffickers. The researchers even found that Facebook's algorithms "help criminals grow their business" -- a business that peddles in abuse, neglect, and exploitation of innocent, defenseless animals.



                        Sign the petition to urge Facebook to strengthen and enforce its policies to end wildlife trafficking! 



                        Tiger cubs, leopards, ocelots, African gray parrots and the world's smallest monkey, the pygmy marmoset, are among the endangered animals trafficked on Facebook. According to researchers, it was "alarmingly easy" to find posts seeking to buy or sell live animals -- available to Facebook's nearly 3 billion users worldwide. Facebook is allowing this criminal business to thrive on its platform -- this must end. Sign the petition to urge Facebook to actually fight wildlife trafficking by changing its algorithms and enforcing its policies!
                       
                 
           
                       
                 Thank you,

                        Jess
