Title:

Coronakrise bremst Nashorn-Wilderei

Author(s):
Leuschner E
Publication Year:
2021
Abstract:

Fälle der Wilderei sind im vergangenen Jahr zurückgegangen - Schuppentiere "am meisten" gehandelt. Mehr als 300 Personen wurden im vergangenen Jahr wegen Wildtierverbrechen an hochwertigen Arten festgenommen. Die geringste Anzahl gemeldete Fälle wird im Zusammenhang mit der Nashorn-Wilderei, die höchste Anzahl wiederum im Zusammenhang mit dem Handel von Schuppentieren verzeichnet.

Cases of poaching have decreased in the past year - pangolins being trafficked "the most". More than 300 people were arrested last year for wildlife crimes against high-value species. The lowest number of reported cases is related to rhino poaching and the highest number related to pangolin trafficking.
