Genetic diversity of African ticks (Amblyomma compressum) recapitulates genetic population origins of pangolin host (Phataginus tricuspis) from Asian seizures

Taneisha A. Barrett, Tracey‐Leigh Prigge, Jen Tinsman, Thomas B. Smith et autres

Ectoparasites maintain close associations with their hosts and can complement host genetics data in studies aimed at identifying wildlife trafficking routes, source populations, and whether trafficked individuals are wild-caught or captive-bred. Despite this association, ectoparasites are rarely incorporated into wildlife forensic investigations. …

Stable isotope analysis successfully identifies wild-caught individuals of threatened Asian freshwater turtles in illegal trade

Yik‐Hei Sung, Jia Huan Liew, Wing‐Lok Chan, Amy Wing Lam FOK et autres

Laundering of wild-caught animals as captive-bred is a frequent practice in the illegal wildlife trade. Stable isotope analysis is a promising tool for distinguishing wild and captive-bred animals. We use Hong Kong freshwater turtles to test the effectiveness of using stable isotopes …
