From walking with lions, to elephant orphanages and turtle breeding programmes, The Tourist Trap explores the complex and varied reality of animals in tourism, exposing what happens behind the scenes. Often sold as conservation, animals are suffering as those exploiting them make lots of money. Balancing the dark side are the individuals and organisations fighting to save the world's wildlife. With this insight, the tourist and volunteer will be able to make an informed choice when it comes to interacting with animals.
