POACHING PENALTIES TO BE REVISED AFTER 17 YEARS- BHUTAN

Forest and Park Services is all set to revise the forest and nature conservation act which was introduced in 1995 as the cases of poaching in the country has increased over the years. The purpose of the revision is to impose a stringent poaching law and increase poaching fines.  Musk deer is the commonly poached animal because of its highly valued musk and ease of trapping compared to other animals.
