The Wildlife TRAPS Project, implemented by Traffic and with funding support from USAID, is helping to forge cross-sectoral partnerships with government and experts in inter-governmental organisations, NGOs, academia, and the private sector to identify risk mitigation strategies to prevent future zoonotic spillover potential associated with trade in wild animals.

Could sustainable management of wild meat trade be the solution to Africa’s poaching crisis?

Since 2020, Tanzania’s pioneering Game Meat Selling Regulations have framed a new paradigm.

Our in-depth report explores how Tanzania’s regulated wild meat market can be a strategic move to curb poaching, prevent zoonotic diseases, promote sustainability, and expand food security.

TRAFFIC explores the impacts and risk management challenges from biodiversity conservation, traceability, community, and economic perspectives.

Our analysis of Tanzania’s sustainable wild meat trade model illustrates how a multi-sectoral One Health approach can underpin key steps towards sustainable, safe and legal trade of wild species.
