Descripción
This technical publication on <i>Bush meat, wildlife-based economies, food security and conservation: Insights into the ecological, economic, and social impacts of the bush meat trade in African savannahs</i> is the second in an open series of FAO publications on illegal hunting and bush meat trade. This publication provides insights into the ecological, economic and social aspects of bush meat trade in Africa, as requested by FAO member countries at the 16th and 17th Session of the African Fore stry and Wildlife Commission (AFWC). Decision makers need to know the magnitude of illegal hunting and bush meat trade and the long term economic and food security benefits. The study responds to this need. This product is a result of a fruitful collaboration by FAO and Panthera, the Sustainable Use & Livelihoods Group (SULi) of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), and the Zoological Society of London (ZSL). <p>Access the second publication <a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-b c610e.pdf"> <i>Bushmeat, wildlife-based economies, food security and conservation</i></a>.
