"The inspectors revealed numerous violations of legislation, including non-compliance with the requirements for the use of animals in cultural and entertainment purposes, sanitary and epidemiological requirements for the operation of premises, violations of consumer rights and others", - stated in the Telegram-channel of the Prosecutor's office of Moscow.

Before that, on November 18 last year, experts told "Izvestia" about the fight against the turnover of wild animals on the black market in Russia. According to the experts, it is hampered by insufficient responsibility, which includes only administrative fines. According to them, it is necessary to toughen the punishment for such entrepreneurial activity. They specified that over the past year, more than 200 reports of violations were sent to the controlling authorities.
