Bushmeat - Digital Library

The Digital Library contains the BCTF "Research Archive" and "Projects Database", which have been under development since 2000. It includes almost 2,000 references from peer-reviewed journals, reports ('gray literature'), projects and media related to the bushmeat issue. Many references include links to full text online.

The Library can be searched with names and keywords, or you can browse for reports. Search results can be exported into Excel. To open the full record for an individual report, click on the author's name.

You also can browse the bushmeat and wildlife trade project by location. Use the World Project Database to visualize the project locations on a world map.

From 1999 - 2009, the Bushmeat Crisis Task Force members and staff worked together to fulfill its mission of building a public, professional and government constituency aimed at identifying and supporting solutions that effectively respond to the bushmeat crisis in Africa and around the world. While the formal collaboration has ended, BCTF members and former staff continue to work in the field, on policy and with stakeholders around the world. The BCTF website continues to showcase the results of our decade of work and provides the Bushmeat IMAP's archive of bushmeat publications and projects.
