key findings

Please note the examples of seizures and prosecutions appearing in the TRAFFIC Bulletin are not compiled in a systematic fashion: they are chosen to illustrate the more significant examples across a range of taxa that are reported between TRAFFIC Bulletin publication dates. 

TRAFFIC no longer posts links to media-reported cases on its website: to see a selection of these, please follow us on Twitter.

Please note that as the cases are from external sources, TRAFFIC cannot be held responsible for the authenticity of their content, nor for the continuing presence of original links.

News items are provided for information only and are not intended to represent TRAFFIC's policies, positions, opinions or views on the issues raised in the item.

TRAFFIC's analyses of trade information use data compiled from official sources and not, unless specifically stated, from media reports.

Notes:

A compilation of seizures in Bulletins Vols 10-16

A compilation of seizures in Belletins Vols 1-9
