The story of Boitatá Operation and "Princess Diamond" - The One Million Dollar Snake [Kindle Edition]
Kindle Price: $9.99
Publication Date: October 11, 2013
By telling the story of the investigation backstage that led up to Boitatá Operation, this book presents the author’s personal opinion about the captivity of wild animals, formed in one decade work as environmental analyst of IBAMA. After lots of operations in many Brazilian states, most of them fighting against the illegal captivity and the wildlife trafficking, the top of this process is the Boitatá Operation, of which he was one of the mainly creators.
The information presented here has as main objective to bring up the subject and promote an urgent and needed critical and debate, grounded not only in personal experience but also in scientific data, about how our society has romantic and mistakenly seen the captivity of wild animals, as well as minimized the catastrophic consequences of this habit. It’s hoped that the debate promotes the necessary changes in habit and values of ethical cultures, aiming merely at the preservation of Brazilian biodiversity and, consequently, the maintenance of environmental quality for present and future generations, as it clearly established, almost as a utopian, in the Article 225 of the Constitution of the Federative Republic of Brazil.
And let’s hope the Boitatá doesn’t reach us, because we are all victims and all guilty.
