PROTECTING THREATENED WILDLIFE

Overview

offset

Driven largely by criminal organisations, wildlife trafficking is the world’s fourth-largest illegal trade after drugs, human trafficking and counterfeiting. It is valued up to US$23 billion per year. It is also the second biggest direct threat to wildlife after habitat destruction.

With Southeast Asia being an epicenter for poaching hotspots, transit points and consumer markets, Singapore’s strong connectivity makes it a potential route for trafficking syndicates to move their products.

WWF-Singapore works closely with the local communities, businesses and authorities to stop wildlife crime along the supply chain, from source to trade to point of sale.

What You Can Do

offset

Wildlife crime is the second biggest direct threat to wildlife species and a development issue that undermines the rule of law and threatens peace and security. Unless we act now to halt one of the key drivers of biodiversity decline and restore nature, our own survival is also at risk.

Find out how you can stop wildlife crime and protect Wildlife populations.

Policies for Deforestation

FROM 100,000 TO LESS THAN 4,000 IN ONLY A HUNDRED YEARS Tigers have gone extinct in Singapore, Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia.

From 2000 to 2018, about two tigers were taken from the forests every week to feed the illegal wildlife trade. These include baby cubs, who were stripped of their homes and family.

Will the last tiger disappear from Southeast Asia within our lifetime?

What’s next for this endangered species is now in our hands.

Environmental Issues Are Closer To Home Than We Think In Singapore, we are blessed with flourishing flora and fauna, food security, and the comforts of a home. Yet, we sometimes take these blessings for granted.

Environmental issues can often seem like a distant topic to some of us. Do our actions truly make any impact on the planet?

These issues are Closer To Home than we think. Just because you can't see them doesn’t mean they don't exist.

Let’s bring humanity CLOSER TO HOME, starting right here in Singapore. Protecting our home starts with us!
