CITES (the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) is an international agreement aimed at ensuring that international trade in wild animals and plants does not threaten their survival. It was adopted to prevent threats to the survival of these species as a result of international trade. The convention came into effect on July 1, 1975.
