چکیده
2. Wild animals and plants are commonly used in many forms of traditional medicine. The attached paper discusses their use in the traditional medicine of East Asia and the implications for the conservation status of a range of different species. Previous discussion of this issue by the Parties has been concerned mainly (although not solely) with the impact on critically endangered species such as rhinoceroses, Rhinocerotidae, and the tiger Panthera tigris. However, many other species are also used in traditional East Asian medicines.
