20.500.12556/RUL-145337 Illegal trade in exotic animals and its impacts in Slovenia a case study Currently, the illegal wildlife trade is one of the most profitable illegal enterprises in the world. The aim of our study was to determine the situation with respect to wildlife trade in Slovenia, which is mainly a transit country, before changes to the Schengen borders came into effect. The volume of trade is significant but not extensive. The most common endangered species involved in illegal trade in Slovenia are the brown bear, the peregrine falcon, the date mussel, the lady’s slipper orchid, the common snowdrop, the cyclamen, the sea turtle, the otter, and various reptile species. The smuggling of shells (date shells), ivory (ivory products), certain plants, and various hunting trophies (bears, big cats) has decreased in recent years. Nevertheless, counteracting crimes continues to be important for the conservation of some species in Slovenia, notably the lynx, and for the reduction of poaching. Improvements are needed in the detection and prevention of wildlife crime, especially in light of changes made to the Schengen borders and the consequent inclusion of new trading partners for Slovenia. The lack of people properly trained to identify, detect, and investigate wildlife crime is especially acute. illegal trade in exotic pets animals prevention conservation animal welfare ilegalna trgovina trgovina z eksotičnimi živalmi živali preprečevanje ohranjanje dobrobit živali true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2023-04-18 11:30:12 2023-04-18 11:30:17 2024-02-27 03:42:07 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2023 0 0 9 str. iss. 8, art. 1375 Vol. 13 2023 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 343.359.3:502.172 2076-2615 10.3390/ani13081375 149421315 animals-13-01375-v2.pdf animals-13-01375-v2.pdf 1 576E51062C4E650B626BC3E6500C8331 19ad4c3b2fb8d58ceabb7a6e485eccd23a33b10d588ef6e72e42514323315084 714786fe-d4b1-11ee-b5a4-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=181278 https://www.mdpi.com/2076-2615/13/8/1375 1 778a405b-ddcb-11ed-a314-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=168185 Veterinarska fakulteta 0 0 0
