Wildlife crime is estimated to be a multi-billion-dollar industry and is the 4th largest transnational criminal activity after trafficking in drugs, counterfeit goods, and people. (Source: United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), 2016)The Challenge
Illegal wildlife trade is big business. With traffickers ranging from individuals to complex criminal networks operating transnationally, it can be difficult to pinpoint where to begin an investigation and how to collate disparate data to dismantle organized criminal syndicates.
