Promoting forensic science in wildlife law enforcement is critical to combatting the illegal trade in pangolins. An understanding of poaching, illegal trade routes, verification of species, identification of protected species in traditional medicines and illegal smuggling of pangolins necessitated the development of capacity to conduct forensic analysis across Africa and Asia. Efforts should be combined to deliver on high quality and consistency in crime scene and laboratory capacity to generate robust forensic evidence. It is important to maintain national and international confidence in the use of forensic technologies to support law enforcement and inform investigations.
