Devising strategic conservation plans to curb Indonesia's wild bird trade is pivotal to protect species. However, limited understanding of nation-wide trade network patterns could hinder this urgently necessary action. Currently, available information either have restricted geographical scope or is focused on trans-national analysis, limiting understanding of domestic-level nation-wide spatial movement and patterns of traded birds. In this paper, we use media-reported local seizures to understand patterns in a domestic-level wild bird trade network. Indonesia's bird trade network involved 18 countries (including Indonesia), all 34 provinces, and 132,945 confiscated birds from 157 species. Songbirds (Passeriformes) (83.8% of all birds) dominated the trade, with the highest number of birds in demand for songbird competitions and listed as of conservation concern in the IUCN Red List. The most important region and the main transit point was Jakarta, the most important source of birds was Lampung and the most important destination for birds was West Java. Malaysia was the most important international source of songbirds (mostly smuggled into Indonesia), while the Philippines was the main international destination for the smuggling of Parrots and Cockatoos. Seizures mostly occur near transit and destination regions, and fewer near source regions. Despite the identified patterns, it is likely a small portion of the actual size of Indonesia's bird trade. This paper provided a low-cost approach for a rapid wildlife trade network analysis and could be easily used to identify trade patterns of other taxa in other countries.

新闻报道：从媒体报道的缉获事件中表征印度尼西亚的野生鸟类贸易网络

制定战略保护计划以遏制印度尼西亚的野生鸟类贸易对于保护物种至关重要。然而，对全国贸易网络模式的有限了解可能会阻碍这一迫切需要的行动。目前，可用信息要么限制了地理范围，要么侧重于跨国分析，限制了对国内层面全国空间运动和贸易鸟类模式的理解。在本文中，我们使用媒体报道的本地缉获量来了解国内级野生鸟类贸易网络的模式。印度尼西亚的鸟类贸易网络涉及18个国家（包括印度尼西亚）、所有34个省，并没收了157个物种的132,945只鸟类。鸣禽（Passeriformes）（占所有鸟类的 83.8%）主导了贸易，鸣鸟比赛需要的鸟类数量最多，并被列为 IUCN 红色名录中的保护关注对象。最重要的地区和主要中转站是雅加达，最重要的鸟类来源是楠榜，最重要的鸟类目的地是西爪哇。马来西亚是鸣禽最重要的国际来源地（大部分走私到印度尼西亚），而菲律宾是鹦鹉和凤头鹦鹉走私的主要国际目的地。缉获量大多发生在过境和目的地地区附近，靠近源头地区的情况较少。尽管确定了模式，但它可能只是印度尼西亚鸟类贸易实际规模的一小部分。
