Thanks for sharing your experience @Arvind Kumar Chaurasia through @Ussi Abuu Mnamengi's interview. It was interesting to hear how complex the interrelationships between other forms of crime and wildlife crime are.
You mentioned the role of digital technology both as a way that wildlife crime is conducted and as a tool of enforcement. Are there any particular tools that you think will have a positive impact in future?

I have discussed about many useful tools for wildlife law enforcement.
This sounds like a very important and valuable tool in the fight against illegal activities online. Thanks for sharing this information Arvind.
Thanks @Danielle Fryday
Thank you Arvind for this insightful information on the different skillsets offered by Google.
Thanks @Grace Alawa
Thanks Arvind for sharing with us these clear needs and how India is leveraging data science for wildlife law enforcement, your insights are much appreciated.
Would also be interesting to hear your thoughts on this or questions to Arvind @Frank van der Most and @Muthoni Njuguna, especially regarding how organisations/government agencies embrace (or not) technological developments in your experiences.
Thank @Thirza Loffeld
Thanks Arvind for this article - you provide a very interesting and important perspective. I completely agree on needing to shift the message from a focus on financial value to ecological value. Communicating the ecological value provides a more holistic and realistic 'valuation' of an animal/species' contribution to our world, and may hopefully contribute to changing what society values - we need to look beyond GDP/financial growth and take a more holistic view of what is important for a good life, both individually and collectively.
Thanks @Danielle Fryday
