4,000 species from around the world
are the targets of wildlife traffickers. .

this causes "untold harm upon nature.".
The report found that 40% of all
the animals targeted are on the red list
of threatened or nearly threatened species.
The UN Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) report
found that the trade, driven by demand for medicine,
pets and trophies, is active in over 80% of countries.

trafficking and associated crime,

government officials in exchange for fake permits.
