There are many offences against wildlife and they can be serious. For example, illegal wildlife markets are being exploited by international organised crime groups because they are seen as low risk and high reward. The consequences are serious, the widespread problem of illegal fishing is just one example where the impact has been under employed fishing crews turning to drug trafficking or being exploited on the high seas. Sometimes investment in tackling offences sometimes comes up against investment decisions about conservation. Meanwhile, although the protection of wildlife is not a common discussion item amongst law enforcement authorities and the security sector, a range of preventive strategies are in operation to tackle a varied range of offence types, some that have worked better than others.
This webinar will discuss:
The scale and range of wildlife offending
The consequences and the potential remedies
The areas where tackling offences are working and the gaps where more focus is needed
Panelists
William Moreto – Associate Professor of Criminal Justice, University of Central Florida
