The International Fund for Animal Welfare UK (IFAW) found 146 live primates up for grabs and nearly 9,000 wildlife products, including elephant tusks, it said in its report, "Caught in the Web".
Among the animals for sale were chimpanzees dressed as dolls for 60,000 dollars , a "sweet-natured" giraffe in need of a loving, caring home (15,000 dollars), and a London gorilla needing a new home as its owner is relocating -- yours for 4,500 pounds (8,100 dollars).

Sheesh
