#WildlifeTradeTuesdays | African #rosewood (specifically, Pterocarpus erinaceus) faces multiple threats, including uncontrolled and illegal harvesting for high value #timber. 🪵🌳 Because P. erinaceus is listed in CITES Appendix II, international trade in the species is closely controlled to ensure that such trade is not detrimental to its survival in the wild.

Today, we celebrate these magnificent creatures and the power of collaborative dedication to #elephantconservation! Based on the analysis published in 2022, elephant populations at MIKE sites across Africa and Asia are experiencing reduced poaching pressure—some of the lowest levels we've seen in years. Since 2002, the CITES-MIKE Programme has measured the Proportion of Illegally Killed Elephants (PIKE), which is the number of illegally killed elephants found divided by the total number of elephant carcasses encountered, aggregated by MIKE site and year. The news on reduced poaching pressure is a testament to the hard work of everyone involved, from rangers and local communities to international conservation bodies. The MIKE team is currently undertaking the analysis of the 2023 data, which will soon provide insights into whether or not the downward poaching trend continues. #CITESMIKE #DataForElephants #ElephantMonitoring #DataDrivenConservation European Union
