野生动物是地球自然生态系统中无可替代的一部分,然而,由于利益驱使,我国野生动物非法贸易犯罪链条已比较完备,犯罪手法也在不断升级。涉及野生动植物及其制品的非法贸易等犯罪不仅破坏生物多样性和生态平衡,还会导致偷漏税费、疫病传播等严重后果,已经引起国际社会的广泛关注。面对国内外的严峻形势,我国重拳出击,近年来,平均每年查获相关刑事或行政案件2万余起,缴获涉案野生动物600多万头(只)。 Wildlife is an irreplaceable part of the Earth’s natural ecosystem. However, due to the interests of the people, the chain of illegal trade of wildlife in China is relatively complete and the methods of crime are constantly escalating. Crimes involving the illegal trade in wild animals and plants and their products not only undermine the biodiversity and ecological balance, but also lead to serious consequences such as tax evasion and the spread of epidemics. These crimes have drawn wide attention from the international community. In the face of the grim situation at home and abroad, China has made heavy blows. In recent years, it has detected an average of more than 20,000 relevant criminal or administrative cases and seized more than 6 million wildlife (only) each year.
