You probably don’t know this but every day this week, the fates of endangered wildlife will be decided.
Here, our bite-sized pictorial updates about wildlife (see more about saving the great whales in our second #WWFInsider in 1 Minute) as we take you through the 70th CITES Standing Committee (1-5 Oct) which also leads up to London Illegal Wildlife Trade Conference (11-12 Oct).
CITES, or the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora, is supported by the United Nations.
