Until 2011, John M. Sellar was the most senior law enforcement official operating transnationally to combat wildlife crime. Following his secondment from the Scottish police Force as Chief of Enforcement to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES), he was labeled by the media as 'The UN's Lone Ranger'. His duties took him to more than 60 countries, involving 2 million kilometers of travel over the course of 14 years.
