Critically endangered sawfish killed for teeth worth up to $8k in illegal trade
Sawfish are now targeted for their unique rostrums, which are carved into spurs for illegal cockfighting. This hidden trade, particularly prevalent in Peru, devastates critically endangered sawfish populations. A single sawfish rostrum can fetch thousands of dollars, fueling this illicit and profitable market. Enforcement proves difficult due to the informal and concealed nature of these transactions.
