What have you done to stop biodiversity collapse lately? Read how @EarthLeagueInt is saving species from extinction -- and putting criminal kingpins in jail. Great reporting by @NewYorker, which shadowed the team for almost a year. newyorker.com/magazine/2023/…

🐅🇸🇷 “El mensaje más importante es que traten al tráfico de jaguares como un crimen que está en manos de gente peligrosa que está involucrada en otros crímenes serios”, dice Andrea Crosta, de @EarthLeagueInt, sobre la investigación publicada en #Surinam. es.mongabay.com/2023/05/oper…

#InternationalTigerDay2021 reminds us that tigers, Panthera tigris, are listed in CITES Appendix I - CITES Parties must continue to strengthen their efforts to conserve them & combat their illegal international trade by enforcing CITES rules & prosecuting the criminals involved.

It's a happy day for the Balkan lynx! With the approval of Shar Mountain National Park, this iconic -yet critically endangered- species will have more room to roam in #NorthMacedonia. Barely fifty Balkan lynx are estimated to remain in the country. They now have a safer future.

An interesting perspective from Andrea Crosta of @EarthLeagueInt — he says the fight to save the critically endangered vaquita porpoise shouldn't necessarily be viewed as a conservation issue, but as a criminal issue. Read more in my piece in @mongabay: news.mongabay.com/2021/02/in…
Earth League International retweeted
To say the vaquita is 'critically endangered' almost feels like an understatement. There may be 9 of them left in the world. My new piece in @mongabay looks at how different NGOs are trying to save the species: bit.ly/3qvAtQh @EarthLeagueInt @seashepherd @AWIOnline

The illegal timber industry causes serious economic, environmental & social damage. It also fuels conflict in forest regions, where criminal gangs compete for available markets. #ForcesOfNature
