TRAFFIC, an organization that monitors trade in endangered animal and plant species, has published a new study on the illegal trade of Red Pandas.

During the period of investigation from July 2010 to June 2019, the researchers did not document any incidents in India or Bhutan. In Nepal, however, there were 13 seizures – the majority in the capital Kathmandu.
