Episode Description

Wildlife crime affects us all. Illegal trade happens in every corner of the planet, and its effects can be catastrophic for some animals and plants. But the tragedy goes beyond the loss of single species. It's clear our relationship with nature needs to change.

What can we do about wildlife crime? In this episode of Wild Crimes, we look to the future. What impact is wildlife crime having on nature? Should blanket bans be imposed on traders? And what can you do to help?

Join Simangele Msweli, Senior Manager of the Youth Leadership Program at the African Wildlife Foundation; John E Scanlon, Former Secretary-General of CITES and Chair of the Global Initiative to End Wildlife Crime; and Jorge Rios, Chief of the Wildlife & Forest Crime Programme at the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime.
