JIRKŮ, Renáta
This bachelor thesis focuses on illegal wild animals and wild plants trade in the Czech Republic. The thesis discusses general facts about illegal trade and wild animals products. In the practical part of the bachelor thesis the database of the Czech Environmental Inspectorate and the global trade database CITES are evaluated. It was found that the total number of reported animal captures is different in both databases. According to non-public data from the Czech Environmental Inspectorate, 919 illegally traded specimens were seized in the period of time 2011-2020. On the other hand, the publicly available CITES trade database indicates that 42 seizures were made in the same period. From this fact there are significant differences in the traded taxonomic groups, determined forms and in the level of representation of the export countries from which the specimens originate, etc.
