Wildlife trade: A complex issue with far-reaching consequences. Musk deer (Moschus spp) are hunted for their valuable glands, which produce the prized musk used in perfumes. Here, a real musk pod is displayed alongside a fake one, highlighting the demand and profit incentives driving this illegal trade. In the foreground, a Temminck's ground pangolin (Smutsia temminckii) forages during a soft release back into the wild, a reminder of the devastating impact trade has on vulnerable species. The black rhinoceros (Diceros bicornis) in Ngorongoro Crater, Tanzania, Africa, is another victim of relentless poaching for its horns. Let's raise awareness and support conservation efforts to protect these magnificent creatures and their habitats.
