The Animal Protection Agency (APA) is the only European organisation solely focused on ending the trade in wild animals as pets. We carry out research, education and campaigns, which includes lobbying to improve legislation to protect these animals, and raising awareness of relevant issues concerning the keeping of wild animals as pets.
