Question

Explanation:

CITES (the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) is an international agreement between governments. Its aim is to ensure that international trade in specimens of wild animals and plants does not threaten their survival. So it focuses on species that are in trouble (endangered or threatened) and traded worldwide. It is not about the rights of humans to obtain resources in a general sense (its main focus is on species protection related to trade).

Answer:

species that are in trouble and traded worldwide
