NO The rapid growth in demand, harvest, and commercial trade of wild meat has led to the decline and risk of extinction for numerouswildlife populations. This trend poses several urgent concerns: threats to biodiversity and ecosystem health, increased risk of zoonotic diseases, major impacts on food and nutritional security for millions of vulnerable people, threats to livelihoods and income security in the longer term for those dependent on wild meat, and the risk of losing cultural traditions associated with wild meat.
