South Africa's tiger farms caught up in global trade

In South Africa, tiger farms are harvesting the body parts of the big cats for sale on the black market - and they might be the biggest farms of their kind outside of Asia.

The World's Host Carolyn Beeler spoke to Four Paws' South Africa Director Fiona Miles, who joined the show from Cape Town.
