Assam Police have arrested two individuals allegedly involved in illegal wildlife trading, a significant step in combating the trafficking of endangered species in the region. The arrests were made after a sting operation by the police, which uncovered a network trafficking wildlife products such as animal skins, bones, and ivory. The seized items are believed to have been sourced from protected areas in Assam and neighboring states.
The arrest marks a decisive action against wildlife trafficking, which poses a significant threat to biodiversity. Assam Police are working with national wildlife protection agencies and conservationists to strengthen efforts against illegal wildlife trade and protect the region’s endangered species.
