Undercover Investigation Exposes Global Cat Torture Video Trade

**Global Cat Torture Video Trade Exposed by CNN Investigation** Mexico City – A recent CNN en Español investigation has uncovered a shocking global black market for videos depicting the torture of cats. The investigation, which lasted several months, infiltrated online networks involved in the creation and distribution of these disturbing videos. "There is a psychological disorder called sexual sadism, and the motivation behind it is the sexual arousal or pleasure in watching the humiliation," explained criminologist Jenny Edwards in an interview featured in the report. The report highlights the use of coded language and disguises by members of the networks to avoid detection. Activists from the group Feline Guardians Without Borders have noted a 500% increase in the production of this content in mainland China in under a year. Lara, an activist with the group, stated, "We are seeing growth, and so reporting this is absolutely necessary." The investigation sheds light on the disturbing reality of this hidden trade and underscores the urgent need for increased awareness and action to combat animal abuse online. The ease with which these videos are requested and produced, particularly in locations like Indonesia, and distributed globally for $20-$30, is alarming.
