local.description | Cyber space is a boon for all types of commerce including, unfortunately, the trafficking of wildlife. And the Philippines, with its rich biodiversity, is one of the hotspots for the illegal wildlife trade. Whether aquatic or terrestrial, Philippine flora and fauna – many on the endangered list – are targets of illegal wildlife traders. Cockatoos and other attractive birds continue to be smuggled out of the country. Special conservation areas have had to be set up to allow marine turtles, giant clams, seahorses and other endangered aquatic creatures to thrive. | en |
