Here, we develop a mechanism using the International Union for Conservation of Nature’s Red List of Threatened Species to identify species that are likely to be threatened by international trade. Of 2,211 such species, CITES includes 59% (1,307 species), leaving two-fifths overlooked and in potential need of international trade regulation. Our results can inform deliberations on potential proposals to revise trade measures for species at CITES Conference of the Parties meetings.

Memories of home Most animals spend the majority of their lives within a familiar home range. Cognitive tests on pheasants (Phasianus colchicus) support the hypothesis that spatial reference memory underlies the ability to develop a home range, as well as suggesting its critical role in allowing birds to become familiar enough with the landscape to avoid ambush predators.
