Learning Objectives: Wildlife Trafficking is a global threat to wildlife populations and economic markets. It undermines the rule of law and threatens wildlife, including some of the world's most iconic species. Wildlife Trafficking is often perpetrated by organized crime syndicates and has close ties to other illegal activities, such as human trafficking and drug smuggling. In this presentation we hope to raise awareness of wildlife trafficking and point out ways individuals and organizations can better recognize threats to wildlife and financial markets.
