Read this passage from a press release written in April 2009.

"The illegal trade of wildlife is a major threat to Southeast Asia's biodiversity. The criminal nature of the trade not only contributes to
the extinction of internationally protected species, but has further repercussions for Malaysia's international stature. Illegal trade in
wildlife impacts a wide variety of species of animals and plants, from those which are little known to the public to those with the
highest profile such as the tiger, the emblem of Malaysia. Illegal trade in wildlife benefits only a few individuals, but the loss of
biodiversity which results from this will leave future generations of Malaysians with a country that will never be quite the same as that
which their parents and grandparents knew."
What is the long-term impact of illegal trading?
O improves the international stature of Malaysia
O loss of high profile animals
O plants and animals never being seen by the public
O a loss of biodiversity that impacts Malaysia for future generations
