Continued availability and sale of pangolins in a major urban bushmeat market in Cameroon despite national bans and the COVID-19 outbreak

Exporter la citation

Since 2017, the national wildlife legislation pertaining to pangolins has changed in Cameroon, and in 2020, public opinion on pangolins may have changed due to publicised purported links with the coronavirus outbreak. Our objective is to investigate market availability and trends of African pangolin sales since the changes in national legislation and during the COVID-19 outbreak. Using one of the main bushmeat markets in the capital city of Cameroon, Yaoundé, as a case study, we: (1) investigate the rate at which pangolins were brought to the market in 2017/2018; (2) compare the daily availability of pangolins in 2017 and 2020; and (3) investigate trends in pangolin availability on the market as the coronavirus pandemic progressed.
