Sign On to Stop Wildlife Crime

Poaching for trade is one of the leading threats to many of our world's most iconic species. For over a decade, an estimated $23 billion global black market for illegal wildlife products like rhino horn, elephant ivory, and tiger parts has been funded by sky-rocketing Asian demand for fashionable tonics, trinkets, and food.

Wildlife crime is the most immediate threat to so many wild animals including elephants, tigers, and rhinos. While we have had some wins for elephants and tigers, other species—including pangolins and jaguars—are being targeted by criminals for trafficking. 

WWF is working with governments across the entire problem—linking the source, trafficking, and demand countries—to strengthen law enforcement, invest in better protection on the ground, and commit to long-term demand reduction efforts.  

We need your support to stop demand for illegal wildlife parts and products and sustain government priority actions and investments. Pledge to stop wildlife crime and commit to preserving nature's beauty for future generations. 

Dear World Wildlife Fund,

You can count on me to do my part to stop wildlife crime and ensure a future for people and vulnerable wildlife on our planet:

  • I will never buy any illegal wildlife products, as I know that demand drives poaching and funds criminal networks.

  • I will be a committed advocate in support of rangers, local communities, and others on the front lines of conservation.

  • I will share my passion about stopping wildlife crime with my friends and family.

  • I will urge the US government to continue championing efforts and investments to stop wildlife crime at home and abroad.

  • I will stand with WWF and help stop wildlife crime. 

Sincerely,
[Your Name]
