And Game cropping is defined as the taking of animals from a wild herd in numbers that will not endanger the viability of the wild populationMost of the trade in wildlife is legal and provides much-needed revenue to range areas or source countries, many of which are located in developing countries or countries with economies in transition. However, according to Zimmerman, "The black market in illegal wildlife is now the second largest in the world-ranking only behind the trade in illegal drugs." Therefore, the illegal trade, according to Cook et al, not only threatens survival and conservation of endangered species but also offers high rewards and low risks to those involved.
