Global Wildlife Trade Hits More Than Twice As Many Species
Original: Global Wildlife Trade Involves More Than Double the Number of Species Previously Estimated | Newswise
New research reported by Newswise finds the global wildlife trade involves more than double the number of species previously estimated, significantly widening the known scale of human use of wild animals and plants. The finding suggests conservation assessments and trade regulations may have underestimated how many species are traded worldwide, prompting calls to reassess monitoring and protection efforts.
Why now: A new study dramatically revises the scale of the global wildlife trade, raising concerns about conservation and regulation.
