Relational structure of illegal wildlife hunting in China: A nationwide hunter–prey network analysis

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 8, Page 2815-2827, August 2026.
Abstract Illegal wildlife hunting continues to pose a major biodiversity threat in China, yet there remains no systemic relational understanding of the way in which perpetrators are linked to key taxa. To address this, here we provide a novel framework for understanding and addressing the systemic roots of wildlife crime.
