Ex. 12 Read the text and answer the question:

What problem does the article focus on?

Exotic Animals Abduction on

Missing marmosets, alligators, penguins: thieves are targeting Europe's Zoos and safari parks to supply animal collectors who want to own more exotic species. They are harming animals and adding to flourishing illegal trade in exotic birds and animals.

We live in a designer world and people are not satisfied any more with a canary. The more exotic or endangered the animal, the higher the price. British zoos have suffered a major theft every week for the past seven years involving dozens of animals worth thousands of dollars. For

example, one rare hyacinth macaw is worth $45,000.

Zoo thefts made headlines last when a 3-month-old penguin Toga was stolen from Amazon World Zoo Park. He was never found. His parents Kyala and Oscar mourned the loss for several weeks. The manager of the Park thinks that Toga must have been stolen to order by professionals.

But the problem is that you need to know how to handle and care for them or they may die.

Many zoos are n o w increasing security and some are tagging and chipping their animals.

UNIT 9

SMUGGLING

Text

One of the main duties of the Customs Service is to prevent the traffic of smuggling. Smuggled goods can enter the country together with passengers,

cargo or with the means of conveyance.

Smuggling is the unlawful bringing in or taking out of the country of prohibited, restricted or dutiable articles. Sometimes the articles are misrepresented or their value is stated false in order to evade paying duties and taxes. Such actions are also considered illegal. Storage or sale of smuggled

articles on the territory of the country is forbidden by law.

There are other customs violations connected with smuggling: money laundering, commercial fraud, corruption, copyright and trademark infringements, etc.

The most common objects of smuggling are: currency, drugs, jewelry, precious metals and stones, antiques, arms and ammunition, exotic animals, counterfeit goods, intellectual property, and people.

Smugglers use different places of concealment, for example, inside pockets, double (false) bottoms and sides of bags, toys, souvenirs, books, shoe heels, belts. Sometimes smugglers swallow prohibited articles and carry them

65

inside the body. Means of transport also have many hollow places and inaccessible (hard to reach) areas.

Since methods of smuggling are becoming more and more sophisticated the Customs has to develop new effective methods of detecting cases of contraband.

At numerous ports of entry customs officers exercise inspections of passengers, cargo and means of conveyance. In some cases a Personal Search may be carried out. Nowadays they use such high-tech equipment as X-ray screening systems, metal detectors, flexible fiber-scopes, density meters, remote operated cameras, mirror kits etc. Drug-detector dogs are of much help in the fight against the traffic of drugs and explosives. Some countries are known to use biometric scanning technology to check criminal record database.

A person who is found guilty of smuggling may be punished by a fine or taken to court. Smuggled goods are confiscated and turned into Federal

property. In some countries drug trafficking entails death penalty.

There is no class distinction between smugglers. They have included people

of different ages, professions and social positions.
