CARGOLUX has signed the United for Wildlife International Taskforce to join in the ban of the Transportation of Illegal Wildlife Products declaration, reports London's Air Cargo News. The Luxembourg all-cargo carrier said that the move demonstrated its commitment to animal welfare and ethical standards.
'The statement is not legally binding but serves as a symbolic milestone in the fight against an illegal trade,' said a spokesperson.
Said Cargolux CEO Richard Forson: ?We are strongly committed to promoting and taking part in conservational and environmental efforts..?
Illegal wildlife trade is one of the five most lucrative networks worldwide. The transport industry is often unknowingly involved and pledges such as this one serve as an additional commitment to increased vigilance along the logistical chain.
