The videos, filmed in April, reveal wet markets in China, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia and the Philippines are continuing to sell live and dead animals amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
PETA has captured grim footage from inside numerous wet markets still operating across Asia—amid a warning that the next deadly pandemic could begin before the current COVID-19 outbreak is over if they are not shut down.
