In portuguese, we discuss the recent paper on LEMIS, the wildlife trade database in the USA, and how its numbers are alarming. Far from perfect, we still need some system in the EU, where most traffic goes unregulated.

Who is protected and receives most funding? Not the most in need, but the cutest and flufiest. What can we do to change this?

The taxonomic biases in biodiversity data are growing over time. The amount of data we are collecting is growing, but the biases get bigger. We need to make a conscious effort to study the understudied! #SciComms #Science #Taxonomy 🧪 image from Troudet et al 2018 @natureportfolio.bsky.social
