Romania's+Position+paper+(1st+draft)

Committee: International Labor Organization. Topic: Wild life trafficking. Country: Romania.

Animal trafficking is the ilegal activity wich consits in moving animals from his natural habitat to another. This activity is making same animals to be in danger of extinction and same animals had been extinged. The animals are used for clothes, for food, perhaps the people use as a collection etc.... Animal trafficking is also destroying the environments because same zones around the natural habitat of the animals that are trafficking have been destroyed. Some countries of the UN are working hard to finish with this problem, but it is not going to be easy because it produce a big amound of money, so some person are going to continue with this ilegal activity. Romania is implicated in this activity.

Romania defend the hunting of beards because he says that they are so much beards, they are 6276 beards and the ideal quantity is 4080 beards. Romania is involved in an association called factories of dog, this association consists of export dogs to another countries.Romania have some laws to prevent this ilegal activity, but also some people continues doing it. For example, a judge have caught to people carriyng a beard in his car, and they have to declarated and justified or he are going to go to prision. This means that the law romanians have is to go to prision. Another example I have read, is that a judge have caught a romanian exporting a beard, he is gong to go to prision and to pay some taxes.

"The difference between ilegal and legal trade is separated by a thin lin, you can put legal animals and ilegal animals in the cage" says an activist of LAV, an animas rights groups. I think that is so true because if you put in a cage snakes non-venenous with his fertificate and some snakes venenous, the people is not going to see them, but it is illegal. Other statistic is that the 80% of the animals that are trafficked died in a short time because they have to sopport a long travel in a difficult position.

I think that this activity can reduce having more precautions in the aerport and putting more security in the enters of the city. This dont says that some people is triyng and doing it, but it going to reduce the number, and the policy can have controlated the people that have been doing this to know if he export someting. Also the countries that are aganist trafficking with animals can make an agreement with other countries to have more controled all the countries and can reduce more the percent of animals that are going to be trafficketed.
