CITES
Non-detriment finding for saltwater crocodile
Report no: VKM Bulletin 2024:19
Published: 10.09.2024
Key message:
The import to Norway from Denmark of one captive-bred live saltwater crocodile (Crocodylus porosus) for the purpose of zoological exhibition will not be detrimental to the survival of the species.
Thus concludes the Norwegian Scientific Committee for Food and Environment (VKM).
The assignment was carried out on behalf of the Norwegian Environment Agency, which is the management authority for the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) in Norway.
VKM is the scientific authority for CITES in Norway and prepares NDF (non-detriment finding) reports in accordance with the methodology published by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) and CITES.
