Did you know that the Australian coastguards lead a real war against private fishermen? And that the French navy had sunk several secret trawlers - because they chased fishes that are resold for more than 1,000 dollars each? You thought the chemicals destroing the ozone layer had been eliminated? Would you believe it if you were told that in Miami, the "killers of ozone" constitute the most frequent smuggled goods after cocaine? Did you know that the business of skins and bone of rare tigers is more profitable than the heroine's one?
