  • Runako’s producer Saskia visits Hamm, West Germany, site of the world's largest herpetology fair to uncover what types of people buy, or sometimes smuggle, animals and animal products–and why they do it. Whether seeking exotic pets, aphrodisiacs, or hangover cures, the global demand for animal parts persists, as do the shady legal loopholes that allow the trade to flourish.

  • Some compare illegal wildlife trafficking to a war. On the front line are the poachers and the game rangers. Syndicates often rely on the corruptibility of these poorly-paid rangers to be information providers and protectors. Anton Mzimba, a guardian of rhinos and other big game in South Africa, refused to be one of them.

  • With the operation underway. Wolf gains trust by playing a well-connected drug trafficker who is now dabbling in the illegal wildlife trade. But to get money into the traffickers’ hands, and capture them on tape, is more of a hurdle than he expected. Turns out, banks don’t like large, mysterious, international transfers. Wolf tries a more precarious solution.

  • In 2016, Wolf, an undercover agent, was enlisted by a former DEA agent and a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Officer to embark on his most audacious mission to date--to take down a top wildlife crime syndicate. The story of Moazu Kromah, East Africa's most wanted wildlife trafficker, is nowhere near as interesting as how he was taken out, and by whom.
