chicken smugglers

Huge efforts have recently been made by the Vietnamese to stop the smuggling of chickens in from China. Chicken smuggling is one more battle that must be fought in order to stop the spread of bird flu, which has taken over 100 lives in Asia. Vietnamese officials say that if the flu spreads into Vietnam easily, it will likely spread throughout the world, causing a pandemic. Officials also say that the flu is likely to mutate into a virus that is more lethal and easier spread amongst humans. Authorities have found that the reason chicken smuggling is going to be difficult to stop is huge profits by the smugglers. An average chicken smuggler will make a great deal more money than a vietnemese or chinese chicken farmer.
