Title:

Leichter Rückgang - Wildtierkriminalität dennoch eine Bedrohung

Author(s):
Smith E, Reiter C
Publication Year:
2021
Abstract:

In Namibia ging die Zahl der Wildtierverbrechen im vergangenen Jahr laut dem Umweltministerium leicht zurück. Dennoch bleibt dies weltweit ein Problem mit schwerwiegenden finanziellen Konsequenzen, so der jährliche Bericht des Internationalen Konsortiums zur Bekämpfung der Wildtierkriminalität (ICCWC).

According to the 2020 annual report of the Namibian Ministry of the Environment and the police, the number of rhinos poached in Namibia decreased from 52 in 2019 to 31 in 2020. However, the number of nasal horns confiscated increased in comparison significantly compared to previous years. In 2018 and 2019, 13 and eight horns were seized, respectively, compared to 21 last year.
