Where does poaching take place at the most?

Poaching occurs most frequently in Africa, particularly in areas like the savannas and national parks where iconic species such as elephants and rhinos are targeted for their ivory and horns. Additionally, Southeast Asia faces significant poaching challenges, especially for pangolins and tigers, driven by demand for wildlife products. The Amazon rainforest also experiences poaching, primarily for illegal logging and hunting of various species. Overall, poaching hotspots are often linked to regions with high biodiversity and valuable wildlife resources.
