About Campaign
ends 02 Jan 2024, 11:59 PM Singapore's strong connectivity and efficient transportation network makes it a potential route for trafficking syndicates to move endangered wildlife and their products.
Pangolins are the world's most trafficked mammal, with an estimated ONE MILLION poached to feed the illegal trade in the past one decade. In 2019 alone, Singapore port authorities seized three shipments containing around 35 tonnes of pangolin scales. That's an estimate of 40,000 pangolins killed!
OUR SOLUTION
WWF-Singapore helps e-commerce businesses through policy changes and to identify illegal listings on their sites. We also hold discussions to engage and share best practices.
In 2020, WWF-Singapore started the Wildlife Cyber Spotter Programme with selected volunteers, who undergo compulsory training to detect and take down illegal wildlife product postings online. WWF-Singapore then reviews the listings and works toward removing the content.
HOW YOUR SUPPORT HELPS
Your contribution will also help us carry on our advocacy work through influencing policymakers and large businesses.
Your donation can also help equip our Cyber Spotter Programme volunteers with tools and skills to identify and report any suspicious listing online. With close to 10,000 Illegal Wildlife Trade products reported, we need your help to keep the programme alive!
Together, we can make impactful changes that help tackle this illegal trade.
