Hint: Smuggling is the illegal transportation of goods, substances, information, or people in violation of applicable laws or other regulations, such as from a house or building into prison or across international borders. There are various smuggling motives.

Complete step by step answer:
Types of smuggling:
1. Goods smuggling: When enterprising merchants try to provide demand for illegal or heavily taxed goods or services, a large number of smuggling activities occur. As a result, illegal drug trafficking and arms smuggling (illegal arms trade), as well as smuggling, tobacco, and alcohol, are the historical staples [14] are widespread. Since smugglers will face huge risks of civil and criminal penalties if caught by smuggling, smugglers can impose high prices on smuggled goods.
2. Child trafficking: According to a study conducted by ACCESS-MENA, 30 percentages of schoolchildren living in border villages in Yemen were smuggled into Saudi Arabia. Child trafficking is often referred to as "trafficking". Children smuggled are at risk of being sexually abused or even killed.
3. Women trafficking: it is a smuggling activity that transports women to sex service agencies. Smugglers will facilitate illegal entry for a fee, and smugglers will be free after arriving at their destination; victims of trafficking will be coerced in some way. Victims do not agree to be trafficked; they are deceived, lured by false promises or forced to fulfill.
So, the correct answer is Option D.

Note: Wildlife smuggling is the result of demand for exotic species and the favorable nature of the trade. CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) regulates the movement of endangered wild animals across political boundaries.
