About the Dashboard
The C4ADS Wildlife Seizure Dashboard provides users with the ability to independently view, filter, and analyze wildlife seizure data at a global scale and across transportation sectors. b. With data derived from the C4ADS Wildlife Seizure Database, the C4ADS Wildlife Seizure Dashboard gives users the opportunity to engage directly with information on over 7,000 publicly reported seizures across six categories of high-value, high-demand wildlife: elephant ivory, rhino horn, pangolin, leopard, lion, and tiger.
The power of the C4ADS Wildlife Seizure Dashboard is rooted in the quality and the quantity of its data, and is amplified by the incorporation of customizable searches to narrow down data to reflect countries, species, transportation methods, and/or years of interest. By leveraging the filtered data analytics contained herein, C4ADS Wildlife Seizure Dashboard can highlight general trends in illegal wildlife trafficking, aid decision makers in the formulation of policy, provide insight and context to journalists investigating illicit trafficking activities, and even assist law enforcement officers as they calibrate resources to address shifting trends. As a result, C4ADS Wildlife Seizure Dashboard is a key resource for increasing understanding about the shifting dynamics of the illegal wildlife trade while serving to promote actionable data to counter-wildlife trafficking stakeholders.
