The Indonesian nation was blessed by the Almighty God in the form of abundant natural resources, both in water, on land and in the air. One of these natural resource wealth is the animal. The animals in Indonesia are very numerous, but Indonesia cannot protect the animals they have, which causes the animals themselves to be threatened with extinction. One of the main factors threatening the extinction of the animals themselves is hunting for trade. Various types of protected and endangered animals are still traded, one of them in Yogyakarta. In fact, there are rules that prohibit the trade of protected animals, which are regulated in Law Number 5 of 1990 concerning Conservation of Biological Resources and their Ecosystems. This law is the basis for the enforcers of the Natural Resources Conservation Agency of Yogyakarta (BKSDA) and The Detective Directorate for Special Crime (Ditreskrimsus) Regional Police of Yogyakarta to carry out their duties in handling the case of protected wildlife trade in Yogyakarta. Departing from this background, the authors question how the law enforcement is carried out against the trade crime of protected animals in Yogyakarta and whether in law enforcement against the crime of trafficking of protected animals is in accordance with the provisions of the legislation.
