About “End WIldlife Crime”

“End Wildlife Crime” is a global and international level foundation dedicated to stopping illegal wildlife trade and protecting biodiversity. They work at the highest government level on various areas within the EU, other supranational organizations and legal systems. The organization fights against the exploitation and trafficking of animals and plants. They push for stronger national and international laws, stricter regulations, and harsher penalties for those involved in illegal trade.
