Summary: Washington Post White House reporter Juliet Eilperin gives a detailed examination of President Barack Obama’s executive order allocating government funds to help combat illegal harvesting of wildlife in Africa, which is a multinational, mega-billion dollar racket. Eilperin recently wrote a book about one of the species caught in the worldwide demand for animal body parts, "Demon Fish: Travels Through the Hidden World of Sharks." Anders Kelto, Africa Correspondent for PRI’s The World, has a story about the positive effects of a new trend toward urban farming in unusual places on the world's second largest continent.
