Wildlife threatened by tourist souvenirs

Up to 600,000 Britons have bought souvenirs made from animals while holidaying abroad in
the last five years, a survey revealed today. International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW)
said this represented 1.5% of all those who travelled abroad within that period.
Elephant ivory, rhino horn, animal teeth and claws, big cat skins and reptile skins as well as
5 coral are among the items that have been purchased by holidaymakers and brought back to
the UK. Tourists who come home with some of these products risk heavy fines and jail terms
if they are caught with them at the airport.
The group’s UK director, Robbie Marsland, said: “Tourists need to remember if they don't
buy, animals won't die.”
10 Wildlife campaigner Nikki Kelly said: “Most of these souvenirs are being bought unwittingly
simply because travellers are confused by the complex laws governing trade in wild animals
or because they just aren’t aware of them. Worse still, wildlife souvenirs are often sold so
openly abroad many tourists mistakenly believe they must be legal.”
To tackle the problem, the group has launched a “Think Twice” campaign with the
15 Association of British Travel Agents (ABTA) to encourage people not to buy wildlife products.
In particular it will be targeting the 500,000 British tourists who make their way to South
Africa each year, where it said the souvenir trade is endangering not just native wildlife, but
animals in Western and Central Africa too.
Keith Richards, from ABTA, said the organisation would brief the 6,500 travel agents
20 and 850 tour operators it represents in the UK and ask them to give advice to customers
about what they can bring back. Mr Richards added: “Unless the travel industry acts now,
some of the very animals so many people go abroad to see may soon only be found on our
mantelpieces or in our jewellery boxes.”

Text:
Methoden von Umweltorganisationen
Die Methoden, mit denen die Organisationen versuchen, ihre Ziele zu erreichen, sind unter-
schiedlich. Sie reichen von Infoständen auf der Straße bis hin zu spektakulären Aktionen wie
der Blockade von Walfängern. Auch Demonstrationen werden veranstaltet.
Im Bereich Walfang und Fischerei sind auch viele Naturschutzorganisationen aktiv. Als
5 international tätige Organisation ist hier z. B. Greenpeace zu nennen. Häufig greift Green-
peace zu der für die Aktivisten sehr gefährlichen Methode, mit eigenen Schiffen die Wal-
fänger und Fischerboote zu blockieren.
Extreme Gruppierungen gehen auch mit Gewalt gegen die von ihnen wahrgenommenen
Missstände vor. Physische Gewalt gegen Personen wird jedoch ebenso grundsätzlich ab-
10 gelehnt wie Gewalt gegen Tiere. Ebenso problematisch ist die Freisetzung von Tieren im
Sinne des Tier- und Naturschutzes, da das plötzliche, möglicherweise massenhafte Auftre-
ten einer neuen, nicht heimischen Tierart schwerwiegende Folgen für die heimische Fauna
haben kann.
