Abstract
Wildlife crime as a high value, high volume area of global crime (Schneider, 2008; Wyatt, 2013) with lasting impact on ecosystems is undoubtedly an area worthy of criminological attention. Central to this book’s analysis of the policing of wildlife laws has been consideration of wildlife crime from a green criminological perspective. As a fast developing discipline, green criminology offers scope for a critical exploration of real world problems relating to environmental crime and criminality including environmental security, species justice, transnational crime and corporate wrongdoing (Nurse, 2014b). At its best, green criminology provides not only scope to consider such topics as ecological justice and illegal trading in wildlife from a theoretical perspective, it also provides a means through which mainstream criminal justice policy and practice can be scrutinised and improved.
