how does this evening travel safely reach the ocean? indeed, dw wood or sports, all of our scoring. we say there were about never giving up sports flies every weekend on dw, the we often forget that this planet does not belong just to us. it is also shared by magnificent creatures and the planets belongs to them as much as it does to hello and welcome. i'm sorry to cut the body annual watching equal in depth on why these

creatures have had a bus well just to live, but also try the non natural environment. we have made their lives living here. and this episode is all about those people who are trying to change this and help see i bio diversity. okay, imagine this. it's late june and july. it's a warm evening and right as dusk steps and you'll see tiny speck. so flight in the is close to the trees, but nothing to eddie. this just means that fireflies have entered project. but did you know that fireflies are close to extinction because of habitats? los vestos eyes and artificial light? well, there's a community, a tribal community in the west and state of my head astra, which is trying to do something to help save these fireflies and work on their phones with each or the say you are there is that an imposing mountain region west and india as douglas falls over them,

a very special light comes on. the bio luminous into the lights of the fireflies. while a female is slight to some weights on the ground, male fly around lighting up the sky and looking for the perfect means. the one man who was very invested in this phenomenon is a more but fun time. and then to monitor just the fire flavor. basically the beatles, ok a little bit out of color flavors that actually beat those that a few just on this planet who communicate with the light signal. so firefly either one of the this natural phenomenon has done it to a popular tourist attraction. organize mostly at camp sites. firefly festivals have been drawing taurus in hordes. one festival and the other tribal village of british bodies stands out. it is led entirely by the community that organizes expeditions for urban travelers. the villages with residents work as local guides who shared

that experiences with fireflies. so i guess not the kind of the list that they, i mean that we did the door is the spots but they can be seen in abundance. it could have, but they tell them about what scenes they like to sit on. how often they come out, and why they glue in the night need to cut some of that. that was done for not me, i know, but it, there goodness on eva. well, this child community firefly tourism has done into a unique livelihood opportunity right in the backyard. more than a 100 families take part in hosting tourist showing them what router life is like, including 2 traditional means. each family owns it on $3000.00 to be the $33.00 euros a month. but this is a red case of lucas benefiting as well as a gentle form of tourism. normally firefly festivals in my head. i started cause

for concern among why life was the firefly, 51 of a lot of going to have of that back to this in the view of taking good photos. they need to be made aware of that. what do you see on the plan? you're gonna need the mean when you walk in the, of the plan for the killing a female which is walking down below, you know, below your feet. people should not be allowed to go. and you know that 3 because the communication will be disappeared apart from that, the female or a really good kid. so if they have to the, you know, make them vision with them for currently the over 20 different firefly festivals organized by various to operators across my roster. but they differ from this one. doris i lot to offers of loud music bodies every night. barbecue is and cam files sounded. light pollution from these activities are among the biggest threats to fireflies which need darkness to survive. my basically call to just on,

on spend a good has been fighting against us so far. we've had from the forest department. he has identified festivals that cause a disturbance and has managed to put a stop to some of the commercial activities. unfortunately i'd be very harsh to see that the tourism operator groups who are taking people firefly for students have 0 understanding of fireplace. they don't know the species, they gives the heater information, they just go to see that. and then they have glittering lights, which i put out. and this is why i thought this 2, that is, you know, that's not going to be 5. a lack of studies and knowledge about fireflies have already led to a significant decline habitat loss due to oven development, pesticides, and via can a traffic have also contributed. and this has left a big impact on more species than just fireflies. fireplaces are basically

predatory in nature. there are 100. ringback that in this small but a very important condos in the forest. so they control is the population of the guy, the controller population of many other, you know me, flies and get his flies and several other insects which can become bessler's. so they had ruled as best control, is very, very large. so any number of, of drop in the number of fireflies can have a direct impact on the forest with their livelihoods closely, intertwined with the beads and species, the british, muddy community tells us they are overcautious about the federals of commercialization doors here. i mean to, to the line, including with fools like no use a flashlight, a no overcrowding much. they further get that done if they've been some. doris even tried to catch the fireflies, but we don't allow them to do the full garden. these fireflies the dining and fragile and will immediately die if you catch them. you know, we educate the daughters that the seas will be does with the shop lights. man,

i and the beauty of nature is best enjoyed by watching mobile event as the light of the firefly not only symbolizes its own health, but that of the forest, the local community. and the entire ecosystem would stick the regulations and move on to stores of the fireflies light can know for a long time to come the or how would you feel if someone gap charge you for 2 inside a cage and sold you off against filled with sounds pretty hardly, right? well, this is something that is frequently done to exotic, unprotected animals cross the border illegally. animal smuggling is those g o t w w f estimates that'd be in the good, vital life trade business is a $10000000000.00 business and it is on the rise. her heart is still in the wild. but now can you live as an enclosure in a spanish animal shelter near a country?

the female clouded leopard is only 11 months old, but she has suffered greatly caregiver belly die is nursing her back to health. queen, outside of the yellow, she was confiscated from a private owner who had neglected her. so that means she must have been poorly fed from the start. and she's even gone blind to the private breeder now has to face the authorities for violating the convention on international trade in endangered species. the east asian founded leopards is also an endangered species. so can you, is a rarity. spain has become a gateway for a legally traded exotic species. the police often find them when inspect the ships arriving in a country or from the nearby continent of africa. maria pay us their works for a special environmental crime unit. passenger luggage here that the airports. she's

need a network in europe to import them. and they will feel this is a highly profitable business being taken care of. but if a monkey, for example, it might cost $5.00 or 6 years in africa, and here it can fetch 2000 bureaus or more. and there we go. include so much. according to the world wildlife fund, fiscal oval business is worth a billions. sophia says the illegal animal trade is comes 3rd after drugs and weapons, but it's impact is under estimated to dinner with the vehicle, the adams, i'm going to go to as arms trafficking and drug smuggling, or taken more seriously. more effort is put into enforcement, wiley and border bung. illegal animal trafficking is just a serious, but it isn't seen a search. it's not pursued and prosecuted as often that makes these crimes even more lucrative for the 30s are often overwhelmed and the fight against

the exotic animal trade. this with cock, for instance, was probably trafficked from morocco to spain, but the smugglers were able to cover the trucks. well, they sell out and i tend to look for yeah, the dealers are using new technologies, selling the animals on the internet on a single that service and they avoid detection because they can hide behind anonymous network. so for the new model get put in a fella, they even use the dark web dart with the authorities don't have enough specialists to investigate properly. an animals are often rescued when it's too late. as we can you the cloud leverage the business that they lost the yellow so rather choose to use to people and she's blind in the wild. she would never be able to deal with her own species saying she was raised in captivity. so

she's condemned to a life in captivity and go through a list of so either this illegal trade mix can you and many other wild animals like current products that lose their freedom forever. the it is just sad. what can we do to animals, despite everything that they do for us? well guess who is a former best friend, steining little ones and beyond? they should be visa williams can do magic's to the such entity and the productivity of the site. and then also key to maintaining the biodiversity under the ground. don't be scared of a lot for all us. so i need to be held. the 3rd ones are really necessary. azako deed, in a farm up from the village and audio is making natural fertilizer using these 2

months. and what is that the about the, you know, what's i, oh, not a bit of gone that, that a lot of families around our village. so i wanted to do some things related to agriculture. i also have some line, i can source visual materials from that. so i thought i would do is let me con post . i got this idea from my father was also a farmer. and he was to do a lot of vegetate before me. another guy did it, but he only used me from forced for his crops and it produced good use. i learned this technique from the goddess. is it? so i'm up on the more the a lot of the now the only the difficult things, but the technique is very simple for us to prepare to combust bed and put got done on it. man a for a low on the behalf of vetted on over. i'm been put renata leaves on don't want to keep the temperature down. we've been wanting to add for 15 days and it becomes soft like a button which is how the rooms prefer to eat and let it and allow this oper. the governor also provides the dock space only then to let them come up and eat the

weeks on the well, then we package it into individual bods of 10 by 25 or 50 kilo's. what if i waive them? i'm finally deliver them to our customers on the positive is to get all the possible risk on if we do on get them know if this going on a good deed and has to become a successful entrepreneur in audio little small. so if you can tell me not do lately, she has also started teaching them in the fund, moves in the area about how to raise alarms and produce, let me come, falls to using the fields so far in human farm is from the surrounding villages have benefited from that initiative and the years ago and i might as well do, you don't at home, but she told me to do, let me composting since i have some land and resources. when she gets orders from customers, she says she will buy the ford light bill from us and sell it to them. we used to use chemical for the night of those, but now we have switched to will make on post.
