A Russian citizen has illegally obtained a Siberian tiger and is trying to sell the tiger’s fur in the United States. What treaty does this violate?

CITES, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora, regulates international trade in threatened and endangered species and their parts. A Siberian tiger’s fur is part of a protected species, and selling it from Russia in the United States is international trade. Therefore, the violation concerns CITES, not the EPA or a “Tiger Treaty.”
