Logging Truck in Para State, Brazil

A truck loaded with timber, these trucks often travel at night when inspections are less common.

An investigation by Greenpeace used covert GPS locator beacons to monitor logging trucks. During the day, empty logging trucks travel deep into the rainforest and at night they travel from illegal logging camps to sawmills in Santarém. These sawmills regularly export timber to Europe, China and the United States.
