Use of and trade in wildlife is a fact of life for human society around the globe. Article IV of the CITES Convention requires that exporting countries restrict trade in Appendix II species to levels that are not detrimental either to species survival, or to their role within the ecosystems in which they occur (known as the non-detriment finding).
