Current and future directions of DNA in wildlife forensic science

Forensic Science International: Genetics, 2014
Wildlife forensic science may not have attained the profile of human identification, yet the scale of criminal activity related to wildlife is extensive by any measure. Service delivery in the arena of wildlife forensic science is often ad hoc, unco-ordinated and unregulated, yet many of those currently dedicated to wildlife conservation and the ...

Wildlife forensic science: A review of genetic geographic origin assignment

Forensic Science International: Genetics, 2015
Wildlife forensic science has become a key means of enforcing legislation surrounding the illegal trade in protected and endangered species. A relatively new dimension to this area of forensic science is to determine the geographic origin of a seized sample.

Forensic science, genetics and wildlife biology: getting the right mix for a wildlife DNA forensics lab

Forensic Science, Medicine, and Pathology, 2010
Wildlife DNA forensics is receiving increasing coverage in the popular press and has begun to appear in the scientific literature in relation to several different fields. Recognized as an applied subject, it rests on top of very diverse scientific pillars ranging from biochemistry through to evolutionary genetics, all embedded within the context of ...

Wildlife Forensic Genetics and Biodiversity Conservation: The Intersection of Science, Species Management, and the Law

2021
The essential purpose of biodiversity conservation is to protect individual species and to preserve habitats and ecosystems which have declined in quantity and quality over time as a result of human activities. In some instances, laws have been passed to protect vulnerable resources from overexploitation and to support efforts that address biodiversity

Wildlife Forensic Science

2010
When investigating violations of wildlife laws involving the illegal killing of protected species and the trafficking of wildlife parts and products, the difficulty of linking the suspect and victim to the crime scene is frequently complicated by (1) the lack of species-specific definitions for wildlife parts and products; and (2) the circumstances ...

Re‐evaluation of the hydrogen stable isotopic composition of keratin calibration standards for wildlife and forensic science applications

Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, 2017
Rationale Determination of non‐exchangeable hydrogen isotopic compositions ( δ 2 H values) of bulk complex organic materials is difficult due to uncontrolled H isotope exchange between the organic material and ambient water ...

Experimental evidence shows no fractionation of strontium isotopes (87Sr/86Sr) among soil, plants, and herbivores: implications for tracking wildlife and forensic science

Isotopes in Environmental and Health Studies, 2015
Strontium isotopes ((87)Sr/(86)Sr) can be useful biological markers for a wide range of forensic science applications, including wildlife tracking. However, one of the main advantages of using (87)Sr/(86)Sr values, that there is no fractionation from geological bedrock sources through the food web, also happens to be a critical assumption that has ...
