Wildlife Crime (539A/22)

I would like the details of any arrests and/or seizures made in relation to wildlife crimes. In particular, I’m looking for cases related to poaching, egg poaching, smuggling from overseas/illegal wildlife trade, non-registration of birds and animals that require licensing, and illegal hunting.

If it’s helpful to be even more specific (I am unsure how many cases there may be), poaching, hunting and trade are my top three priorities.

I’d like to see the details of incidents from 2018 onwards. Again, if it’s helpful to specify more, I’m happy to limit the search to 2019 onwards.

I’d like as much information as is possible to be provided with, however I appreciate there are limits with regards to what I can know. The list below outlines the information I’m looking for (in an ideal world!):

– Name of person arrested (if not possible, age and gender would be helpful)

– location of arrest or seizure

– date of arrest or seizure

– details of any items seized

– reason for arrest or seizure

– whether charges were brought

– any other details relevant to the case (e.g. if a smuggler, where the items have come from)

I would like this for crimes that fit the following criteria:

– Took place after 2018

– Relate to wildlife crimes (e.g. illegal poaching, egg poaching, illegal wildlife trade/importation, illegal hunting, keeping species that need licensing without the proper registrations)
