Where overhunting has occurred over long periods, larger and more vulnerable species (often endangered) have already disappeared with smaller, generally nonthreatened species becoming prevalent in the harvest.
“This should however be qualified by the fact that where overhunting has occurred over long periods, larger and more vulnerable species (often endangered) have already disappeared with smaller, generally nonthreatened species, becoming prevalent in the harvest (Altrichter 2006, Bennett and Robinson 2000, Cowlishaw et al. 2005, Stearman 2000).”

In Sarawak, a strictly enforced law bans trade in wild animals and their parts, ensures strict control of shotgun cartridge availability and of hunting in logging concessions, and provides for broad education programs and involvement of local communities in the management of protected areas.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
