Donate to Stop Wildlife Trafficking

Illegal wildlife trade is estimated at over $20 billion annually — the fourth-largest illegal trade globally after drugs, counterfeiting and human trafficking. Live animals, parts and derivatives move through air, sea and road routes. Interception without funded triage capacity loses animals back to trade.

Customs detection training, seizure triage equipment, quarantine pens, species-appropriate diets, veterinary assessment and sanctuary placement — the critical hours after intercept. WARN is developing grant support. Check the relevant appeal and /about/where-your-money-goes/#grant-register for recipient selection, agreements and published payments.

Pangolin scales through Port Klang, parrots from Colombian forests, slow lorises for the pet trade, big-cat parts from Africa and Asia — each needs specialist response. Donate to pangolin appeal, parrot appeal, slow loris appeal or give generally at donate.

Live seizures need immediate placement and veterinary care. Parts trafficking — scales, ivory, horn — requires detection and evidence chains. The linked appeal explains the proposed purpose and current recipient-selection status. An educational country guide does not establish a funded WARN programme.

Donate in GBP at donate or choose species appeals. Monthly giving builds year-round triage capacity instead of crisis-only response after high-profile raids. See malaysia wildlife trafficking for Malaysia context.

WARN does not conduct law enforcement. It grants to partners supporting customs detection, post-seizure care and release monitoring — complementing government interdiction with welfare capacity.

Wildlife trafficking intersects pangolin scales at Port Klang, parrots in Colombia, slow lorises in Indonesia and big-cat parts across Africa and Asia.
