摘要：
There is only scant empirical field research that explores the structures of the wildlife trade throughout the world. This study describes the processes that take place before, during and after wildlife is traded illegally in Peru through the words and experiences of the actors involved. This analysis utilizes formal interviews (N = 47), observations and thick descriptions in order to contextualize the processes of catching, selling, buying and rescuing wild fauna. Wildlife trade across Peru is found to be opportunistic and informal. The actors involved in this commerce are best described as ordinary citizens looking to supplement their low incomes. © 2015, Springer Science+Business Media New York.
