We hear of illegal wildlife seizures all the time, but how many taxa are seized? What were their intended use-types?

We collated long-term #IWT seizure records to answer these Q's (pre-print link): https://t.co/ghPA03bWxk

East Africa is facing major threat from #DesertLocusts. The window of opportunity to help is still open & the math is clear: pay a little now, or pay a lot more later.

@FAO is urgently asking for $138M to help governments control these devastating pests: https://t.co/v7DePJNFhL
