world, including high levels of endemism. Indonesia save many wildlife
species diversity, but also is one country that has a rate of species extinction
is high enough. All this is due to low levels of supervision and enforcement of
the illegal exploitation of wildlife and the level of poaching is very high.
Whereas continuous exploitation without regard to sustainability can
threaten the survival of these animals in nature and can result in extinction.
Problem formulation is, How do the efforts of the police in law enforcement
against the illegal distribution of protected wild animals in Yogyakarta
Special Region?
Efforts made by the police in law enforcement against the illegal distribution
of protected wild animals in Yogyakarta Special Region is still not effective in
suppressing the illegal distribution of protected wild animals in Yogyakarta
Special Region. This is because the police had not acted firmly against the
perpetrators. Efforts made during this new limited preventive efforts, so as
not to discourage illegal circulation of such perpetrators. In the future the
police should be more assertive and daring to use repressive efforts so that
the perpetrators will feel discouraged and they will not do it again.
