Crimes Against Wildlife and Plants

Crimes against wildlife and plants involve illegal activities that harm animals, plants, or their habitats. This includes poaching endangered species, illegal logging, trafficking in wildlife products, and pollution that disrupts ecosystems. Such actions threaten biodiversity and the balance of nature, leading to loss of species and habitat destruction. Environmental crime laws aim to protect our natural resources by imposing penalties on those who exploit or damage the environment unlawfully, thereby safeguarding plants and wildlife for future generations.
