Flying Under the Radar: Wildlife Trafficking in the Air Transport Sector
Flying Under the Radar is the most comprehensive report on wildlife trafficking in the air transport sector to date, analyzing ivory, rhino horn, reptile and bird seizures from airports worldwide between 2009-2016.
Published by USAID's Reducing Opportunities for Unlawful Transport of Endangered Species (ROUTES) partnership and C4ADS, the report reveals how widely wildlife traffickers exploit commercial airlines, as well as global patterns of trafficking behavior. Based on the findings, Flying Under the Radar outlines more than a dozen recommendations for preventing wildlife trafficking through the air transport sector.
