State intervention to protect endangered species: why history and bad luck matter

Article Abstract:

State enforcement is required to support and supplement the formal status of endangered species as illegal exploitation threatens the survival of many species, and anti-poaching legislation does not protect species. The dynamic model shows that both poaching and enforcement effort increase or decrease whenever poaching effort and enforcement are relatively profitable or unprofitable activities.
