Wildlife DNA Services

Wildlife DNA Services was a specialist biotechnology company providing genetic analysis services for wildlife conservation and forensic investigations. The company focused on species identification, individual profiling, and population genetics to support the enforcement of international wildlife trade regulations. It served a global clientele, including law enforcement agencies and environmental NGOs, by delivering legally robust DNA evidence for wildlife crime prosecutions. Based in the United Kingdom, the firm was a spin-out from the University of Wales, Bangor, and operated as a commercial laboratory for over a decade. Although the company is now dissolved, its legacy continues through the TRACE Wildlife Forensics Network, which was co-founded by the company's principals.
