They were arrested on May 5th with more than 700 kilograms of pangolin scales during a major crackdown against wildlife crime. The arrest was carried out by the Boumba & Ngoko Divisional Delegation of Forestry and Wildlife, in collaboration with the Gendarmerie and with technical assistance from LAGA. Wildlife authorities arrested the three alleged traffickers who are part of a sprawling wildlife crime network operating across Cameroon and extending into Gabon, CongoBrazzaville, the Central African Republic, and Equatorial Guinea. Preliminary reports pointed out that the suspects specialized in the illegal trade of pangolin scales, which they collected and stockpiled over time while concealing their activities under the guise of trading nontimber forest products. Pangolins are among the most trafficked mammals in the world and as such face threat in their survival. Cameroon is home to three of pangolin species – the white-bellied, the black-bellied and giant pangolins which are all classified as endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened species. In a note that was made public immediately after the arrests in May, the Ministry of Forestry and Wildlife denounced the massacre of pangolins and reaffirmed its determination to fight the illegal trade in the country. The matter is presently under investigation by an examining magistrate in Yokadouma. The suspects risk up to 20 years in prison and fines of up to 50 million CFA francs if found guilty under 2024 wildlife law. - [NWR: MINAT suspends sales of Motorbikes for 48h](https://cameroonnewsagency.com/nwr-minat-suspends-sales-of-motorbikes-for-48h/): The Minister of Territorial Administration, Paul Atanga Nji, has ordered a 48-hour suspension of motorbike sales in Cameroon's North West Region as authorities begin an inventory of motorcycles currently held in shops.
