While it would likely slow or halt poaching efforts, the sheer destruction in Burma and the desperation of it's inhabitants brings it's own severities. <br /><br />I'm not entirely informed on the situation, but this is my understanding. I have spoken at length with a human rights worker who ranged in the Burmese warzone (geurilla-style, having to sneak across the border) and he told me how the devestated ethnic minorities would kill and eat any wildlife just to stay alive. That, and the massive burnings, explosions, firefights, and such make the area a very questionable "safehaven".<br />https://heroesservinghumanity.org/Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16678851987515996423noreply@blogger.com
