Wildlife Trafficking and Biofact Literature Review

This literature scan, conducted by Inform Evaluation & Research for the Minnesota Zoo, explores best practices in wildlife trafficking education and the use of biofacts in zoo programs. This resource includes the review of both peer-reviewed and gray literature (e.g., non-peer-reviewed, more practitioner-based). Key findings emphasize the importance of audience-specific messaging, addressing misconceptions, and making conservation actions personally relevant, while also highlighting the role of biofacts in enhancing engagement and learning.
