Enormous profits are being made out of wildlife and forest crime, which is not only having a devastating impact on wildlife and forests, but also on people and their livelihoods.
Wildlife and forest crime undermines the efforts of rural communities and indigenous peoples to manage their natural resources in a sustainable way. Vulnerable communities are exploited by the criminals and may become involved because of their perilous economic situation.
The total value of the illegal trade in wood-based products, usually from and within East Asia and the Pacific, is worth an estimated US$17 billion. The illicit wildlife trade is generating a further US$2.5 billion from East Asia and the Pacific alone.
