The Illegal Wildlife Trade (IWT) Financial Flows Toolkit is for financial institutions with particular focus on Africa, Asia and broader global financial centres. The toolkit also provides comprehensive resources for addressing wildlife trafficking, including practical guides and strategic frameworks. It offers tools for law enforcement and conservationists to improve their response to illegal wildlife trade, focusing on investigation techniques, legal frameworks, and inter-agency cooperation. The red flag guidance document within this toolkit compiles a set of key IWT-related red flag indicators to help financial institutions identify the key signs of suspicious activity related to IWT. Some of these red flags are common to other types of crime, but are particularly relevant to IWT.

Provides standards for capturing and using photographic evidence to support wildlife trade investigations.

A machine learning system that can isolate potential illegal wildife trade products for sale on online marketplaces. Current training data is on ivory, pangolin, wild cat teeth and claws, elephant hair and skin. The system is housed at WWF Singapore and is part of the Cyber Spotters initiative. Data extrapolated from this system gets forwarded to law enforcement (if deemed serious), to e-commerce companies (for their records) and kept internally to be used as references for potential future action i.e. demand reduction initiatives, digital deterrent.

The Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) Trade Database, managed by the United Nations Environment Program World Conservation Monitoring Centre (UNEPWCMC) on behalf of the CITES Secretariat, is unique and currently holds over 13 million records of trade in wildlife and over 34,000 scientific names of taxa listed in the CITES Appendices. Around a million records of trade in CITES-listed species of wildlife are currently reported annually and these data are entered into the CITES Trade Database (an Oracle relational database) as soon as they are received by UNEP-WCMC. CITES annual reports are the only available means of monitoring the implementation of the Convention and the level of international trade in specimens of species included in the CITES Appendices. The CITES Trade Database can be queried and data downloaded from the CITES website (www.cites.org) or the UNEP-WCMC website (http://unep-wcmc.org/citestrade). You can contact UNEP-WCMC directly (see Annex 6 for contact details) if you have a specific data request that you are unable to answer using the online data querying facilities.

Species+, developed by United Nations Environment Program World Conservation Monitoring Centres (UNEP-WCMC) and the CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) Secretariat, is a website designed to assist Parties with implementing CITES, Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species (CMS) and other multilateral environmental agreements (MEAs). Species+ provides a centralised portal for accessing key information on species of global concern. In particular, Species+ contains information on all species that are listed in the Appendices of CITES and CMS, as well as other CMS Family listings and species included in the Annexes to the EU Wildlife Trade Regulations.
