Off Ecuador's Galapagos, a former #shark-#poaching ship's new mission https://phys.org/news/2024-07-ecuador-galapagos-shark-poaching-ship.html
When #Ecuador's navy seized a Chinese-flagged ship off the #Galapagos in 2017, its hold brimmed with tons and tons of poached #fish including hammerhead and thresher #sharks. Today, the vessel has been repurposed for environmental patrols of those same waters, helping to hunt down predatory vessels of the kind it once was. It has also been renamed #Hualcopo for an Indigenous leader of centuries ago.

Genomic analyses reveal poaching hotspots, trade routes of most trafficked endangered mammal
UCLA scientists and colleagues have created a genetic source-to-destination map of the most trafficked mammal in the world—the pangolin—using samples from living white-bellied pangolins and scales from the animals confiscated at illicit markets.David Colgan (Phys.org)
predicting that up to one million #animal and #plant species could soon be extinct.
Some #forests are already deemed “empty” in the wake of rampant #hunting and #poaching.
This problem goes beyond China and the current coronavirus pandemic and is driving the extinction of species in many countries, so we are calling for the worldwide closure of wildlife markets.
Please sign and share our petition and speak out against these barbaric markets.
