Experts advocate traditional medicine that doesn’t use illegal wild animals

60 experts on Wednesday attended a workshop on traditional medicine that doesn’t use products from rhinoceros or other endangered wild animals. The workshop was organized by the Traffic Organization and the Vietnam Association for Oriental Medicine.

Nguyen Tuyet Trinh, the Director of Traffic Organization in Vietnam, said: “Doctors specializing in traditional medicine play an important role in preserving the source of medicinal substances. If we do not protect the source, we and future generations will not be able to practice traditional medicine anymore. Doctors should stop using products from endangered animals and raise people’s awareness of this issue.”
