Illegal poaching and international trafficking in endangered species ranks among the largest of crimes, representing tens of billions of dollars per year. On 6 December 2012, Google Giving announced the first seven Global Impact Awards, including a $3 million grant to the Smithsonian Institution for the Barcode of Wildlife Project (BWP). BWP will enable six developing partner countries to begin using DNA barcodes to identify species from minute samples in the investigation and prosecution of wildlife crimes.
