Stolen Species, Missed Opportunities: Wildlife Laundering in Latin America The laundering of illegally sourced endemic species undermines conservation efforts. National governments must switch the incentives to ensure sustainable trade benefits are captured locally.

'. . . foreigners can use the smuggled wildlife to set up a legal ornamental plant or captive breeding business with minimal requirements, creating jobs and revenue in destination countries instead of the country of origin' write Jennifer Scotland and Samuel Sucre in the latest RUSI Commentary.

#Derbyshire lose their 2nd #CountyChampionship match to #Lancashire at Old Trafford. A close game throughout. Derbys showed skill & tenacity, getting the better of Lancs for much of it; James Anderson bowled Derbys out in the 4th innings with 4-18, finishing 30 short of the 138 target. #Cricket

#Derbyshire open their #CountyChampionship season making their 2nd highest score at Derby and forcing #Worcestershire to follow on. Worcs did well to cling on for the draw, 7 down at the end. A fine game and encouraging signs all round with a strengthened bowling attack and stylish batting. #Cricket

Flower after 2013-14 might be the clearest case of a down-under Ashes leading directly to removal?

Putting your prices up by 20% overnight will price many small businesses out of their established markets. And, generally, they cannot compensate by cutting their profits as their margins are already very narrow.
