Opinion | Africa has banned the donkey skin trade, now China must do its part

Opinion | South Korea’s dog meat ban a signal to China to follow suit

Opinion | Whatever the state of US-China relations, panda diplomacy must end

Panda leasing in the name of conservation only supports China’s breeding programme, which has had little success in reintroducing captive-bred pandas to the wild. It would be far better to concentrate on protecting panda habitats and other wildlife.

Opinion | Wuhan coronavirus another reason to ban China’s wildlife trade forever

Both coronaviruses are linked to live animal markets, where sick, injured and dying animals are sold as exotic foods but end up transmitting disease. For too long, wildlife traders have been allowed to hide behind empty claims of medicine or conservation.

Opinion | Trump-Kim meeting at the DMZ was all show and no substance

Donald Trump claims to be cleaning up the ‘fiery mess’ Barack Obama left on the Korean peninsula, when in fact he was the one who started the fire. Meanwhile, Kim Jong-un is playing Trump’s obsession with personal diplomacy to North Korea’s advantage.

Opinion | Did trade war influence China’s decision on rhino and tiger products?

US-China tensions made it easier for the Chinese authorities to act on behalf of the country’s wildlife business interests. However, international outrage might have convinced the authorities that they had conceded too much to the wildlife industry, prompting a rethink.

Why China won’t be sidelined in North Korean affairs

China’s dominance in North Korea’s economy and security matters is unparalleled and Kim Jong-un knows it. For its part, Beijing won’t easily give up its influence, given Pyongyang’s strategic importance.

It’s time to outlaw animal cruelty in China

No defence for a pseudo Chinese custom like dog eating

Seeing animals as a resource is a cruel substitute for real wildlife protection in China
