About MEPs for Wildlife<\/p>\n

\n

MEPs for Wildlife was established in February 2015 as a cross-party interest group at the European Parliament campaigning for the EU to step up the fight against wildlife crime.<\/p>\n

As a group we aim to raise awareness at a European level about the threat posed by wildlife crime, which is now the fourth-largest illegal trade in the world.<\/p>\n

We aim to do this by hosting events, engaging with experts and ultimately delivering an EU Action Plan against Wildlife Trafficking.<\/p>\n

If you want to meet us on an individual basis please contact our MEP offices. Or go to the events section where you will see upcoming MEPs for Wildlife events.<\/p>\n
