Asia Environmental Enforcement Awards 2020: Wildlife Crime Control Bureau

Category: Innovation  Recognizing the ever-growing presence of the online illegal wildlife trade, the Wildlife Crime Control Bureau initiated Operation WILDNET-II to deter potential traders and bring offenders to justice. WCCB created awareness-raising programmes with stakeholders and other agencies and worked through social media and online trade portals such as Indiamart, Amazon, and OLX, to share information on illegal wildlife trade activity. The operation resulted in the arrest of a dozen offenders and the initiation of 9 criminal cases. An array of wildlife species and commodities were also seized, including falcons, pangolins, rhino horn, coral, sea fans, antlers, civet cats, parakeets, and turtles.
