VIENNA - The illegal global trade in ivory has shrunk while the trafficking of pangolins has soared, a U.N. report on wildlife crime based on four years’ data said on Friday.
“The World Wildlife Crime Report 2020 has some good news and some bad news,” UNODC research chief Angela Me told Reuters. For ivory, a supply glut combined with a shift in attitudes because of the Chinese and other bans may be among the factors that contributed to the fall in poaching and prices, the UNODC said, adding that the price of illegal ivory in China fell by more than half between 2014 and 2018.
Simple solution, one round between the eyes of poachers. End of story.
Please tell me what I can do to help prevent this
Stop legitimizing this bullshit as 'medicine'.
If there is an afterlife where I meet somebody who ate, jerked off whatever to a dead pangolin, I'll kill him.
Notice the problem? China.
🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩
0ne of the reasons the black market was flooded with fakepangolin scales?
What’s wrong with people Intelligent people purchasing parts of endangered dead animals to use as medicine when there is a world of other options that cost less and probably work better.
