Illegal Wildlife Trade in a Tourism and Biodiversity Hotspot
There are clear connections between tourism, development, and sustainable use—particularly in biodiversity hotspots, where tourists may unknowingly purchase souvenirs made from protected wildlife. This issue is explicitly recognized in the Sustainable Development Goals, including SDG15, Life on Land, and SDG16, Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions. On the island of Bali, a premier tourist destination with a strong local Hindu culture, we asses…
Indonesia's sustainable development goals in relation to curbing and monitoring the illegal wildlife trade
Indonesia has committed to implement the sustainable development goals (SDG) by 2030 including the ending trafficking of protected species and addressing the illegal wildlife demand and supply. As such, there is a need for long‐term data on wild animal trade and its contribution to the wider economy. We initiated a long‐term monitoring programme of live civet trade in wildlife markets (120 surveys, 2010–2023). Civets are traded to be kept as exot…
Inaccuracies in the reporting of volume and monetary value of large-scale rosewood seizures

Slow and slender lorises ( Nycticebus and Loris ) are primates particularly prevalent in trade, determined until now by focused counts of lorises in regional markets. Here, we use international trade statistics and a partici…
