Changes in time of the volume of illegal trade of felid species between 1975 and 2010, as recorded by the CITES Databases.

<p>Changes in time of the volume of illegal trade of felid species between 1975 and 2010, as recorded by the CITES Databases.</p

Trend of the number of hunts following an IUCN status change.

<p>Status changes, that can be an increased (A) or a decreased (B) IUCN protection status, show that protection status is directly related to attractiveness and exploitation (marginal significance, A: R² = 0.87; F_2,44 = 2.81; <i>p</i> = 0.070; B: R² = 0.85; F_2,9 = 3.91; <i>p</i> = 0.060). Note that <i>P. pardus</i> experienced several successive status changes.</p

Increase of the number of hunts with time for ten felid species (1975–2010; Poisson regression: c²₁ = 31606; <i>p</i><0.001).

<p>IUCN protection status is shown by points of different colours.</p

Positive relationship between the IUCN protection status and the price.

<p>Trophy price has previously been corrected by body mass, in kg, grey dots (Kruskal test: A : H₁ = 0.64; <i>p</i> = 0.42), or by trophy size, in SCI index, black dots (B: H₁ = 5.72; <i>p</i> = 0.02).</p
