Wadudu hao wauzwa hadi dola 100 huku soko likiongezeka Ulaya na Marekani.
Kesi ya Zhang Kequn imeibua tena mjadala kuhusu biashara haramu ya mchwa, ambayo inaonekana kushamiri katika masoko ya kimataifa.
Taarifa zinaonyesha kuwa mchwa husafirishwa kuelekea nchi kama China, Marekani na mataifa ya Ulaya, ambako hufugwa kama wanyama wa nyumbani au kwa madhumuni ya utafiti.
Thamani ya mdudu mmoja inaweza kufikia dola 100, jambo linalovutia wafanyabiashara haramu kuendelea na shughuli hiyo licha ya hatari ya kukamatwa.
Wataalamu wa mazingira wanaonya kuwa biashara hii inaweza kuathiri vibaya mfumo wa ikolojia iwapo haitadhibitiwa.
