September 19, 2024
Staff from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services (FWS) Office of International Programs participated in a webinar on Thursday, September 19 along with IWPA and NAMM staff. Topics included industry concerns about the upcoming implementation of tropical hardwoods listed in CITES Appendix II, which includes approximately 1,400 animal species and 25,000 plant species.
To find out whether a species is listed in the Appendices, you can check in the CITES-listed species database, using either the scientific name or the common name of the species.
