Choose the official channel for your situation. PanduanHewan does not receive or forward emergency reports. If human safety is threatened, use local emergency services.

## Suspected illegal wildlife trade

The Forestry Enforcement portal includes an illegal wildlife-trade category. Submit concerns and evidence through the official channel rather than public comments.

## Prepare a short note

- Incident date and time; district/city and location for the officer.

- What you personally observed, the animal if known, and existing evidence links. Separate observation from suspicion.

- Do not approach animals, enter unsafe locations or confront suspected offenders to obtain evidence.

- Provide personal information and sensitive locations only through the official channel that needs them.
