Hong Kong Steps Up Regulations to Combat Wildlife Crime
[HONG KONG – 30 April 2018] The maximum penalty for smuggling and trading endangered species in Hong Kong will increase tomorrow from two years’ imprisonment to 10 years’ imprisonment,
“The trade in endangered species is rampant in Hong Kong. The increased penalty, coupled with strengthened enforcement, will help deter future wildlife crime offenders from using the city as a hub for smuggling and selling. During the upcoming Labour Day holiday, WWF wants to remind the public and travellers to refrain from purchasing ivory or other products from endangered species.” said Cheryl Lo, Manager, Wildlife Crime, WWF-Hong Kong.
WWF continues to call on governments across Asia to follow the lead of China, Hong Kong, US and UK to take immediate action to close domestic ivory markets.
