Hunting trophies and CITES (in the CR)
BURDOVÁ, Jitka
The excessive hunt of endangered animal species is the cause of their disappearance in the nature. Some African artiodactyls are included in CITES appendixes in order to regulate trade with them to a certain level. This work evaluates a hunting trophy trade with the group of 9 species of African artiodactyls between 2005 and 2010. Registered data from the internet database CITES Trade, which is administered by UNEP - WCMC, was used as a basis. African artiodactyls were traded with in order to get trophies and other parts of their bodies. Specimens of species Hippopotamus amphibius and Kobus leche were traded with the most. North America was the most frequent aiming field for import of specimens from the open nature. Specimens of species Gazella dorcas were traded with the least.
