Many of the infant and young girls are being sold to become wives.

"The Chinese government confiscated a large plastic bag full of 28 girl babies, ranging in age from 2 to 5 months," said Hudson.

The baby girls, whose photos were posted on the Internet, were found stuffed together in plastic bags lashed onto the roof rack of a cross-country bus. Family members had sold them to traffickers for as little as $8 apiece.

"They were being sold to families in the countryside, who were worried about not finding wives for their sons," said Hudson. "So, they would buy them as infants and raise them in the family to become the bride of their son."

Older girls are also being kidnapped. Manyay and Mahray were taken to a faraway province and forced into marriage.

"The man was about 30 years old and a bit fat. He was a farmer and I didn't love him," one of the girls told Stahl.

The girls and thousands of other children were rescued by Chinese police, but tens of thousands are still missing. A couple from Yunnan Province were brave to talk to 60 Minutes, despite warnings by local police not to.

The Lu's daughter, Lei San-Lee, was 8 when she disappeared three years ago, apparently abducted while outside playing.
