Description	This chapter explores the potential application of situational crime prevention (SCP) measures to avert and reduce wildlife crime. It begins with overviews of wildlife crime and SCP, before turning to a review of how SCP can help thwart wildlife crime. The authors explain that whereas traditional crime prevention measures would seek to address underlying problems, such as unemployment and disorderly communities, SCP, on the other hand, targets situational characteristics of the immediate environment in an effort to reduce the potential for criminal opportunities. The authors argue that such strategies can provide an alternative to—or, at least, can accompany—approaches that rely primarily on law enforcement. Recognising that scholars of green criminology and SCP, as well as crime science and environmental criminology, have tended to work in theoretical silos, the authors of this chapter demonstrate how green criminology and SCP can be used in tandem to develop contextually appropriate strategies.
