• The Company is current growing weekly with authorization to store up to 250,000 kg of dried psilocybin-containing mushrooms on-site, or the equivalent of 1,250 kg of psilocybin.

• But alongside legal trade in wildlife, there’s a dark twin – illegal trading of wildlife.
• In our new research, we probed the dark web – the secretive section of the internet deliberately set up out of view of search engines.
• These were almost entirely plants and fungi with psychoactive effects, indicating they are part of the well-known dark web drug trade.
• Why aren’t traders in illegal wildlife using the dark web?

What was being sold on the dark web?

• We found over 3,000 advertisements selling wildlife species on dark web marketplaces between 2014 and 2020.
• Plants made up most of the species being sold, with many coming from Central and Southern America.
• We also found 19 species of Psilocybe fungi being sold.

The illegal wildlife trade is hard to stop

• Globally, the wildlife trade is regulated by the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES).
• The number of species traded live outnumbers the regulated trade by at least three times, according to some estimates.
• To date, there have been few effective disincentives to stop traffickers from selling illegal wildlife online.

What can be done?

• Australia and all other nations that have signed up to CITES have a responsibility to keep track of internet-based wildlife trade.
• Since 2019 we have been monitoring the wildlife trade in Australia, drawing data from over 80 websites and forums.
• Adam Toomes receives funding from the Australian Research Council and previously the Centre for Invasive Species Solutions.

• Clinical trial will provide experiential training to therapists learning to conduct psilocybin-assisted therapy and will use Numinus Bioscience's Psilocybin Tea, EnfiniTea, for dosing.
• "We're thrilled that Health Canada has provided us with their prompt approval and support in starting this important clinical trial," said Payton Nyquvest, CEO and Founder, Numinus.
• "We're honored to offer this unique experiential clinical trial opportunity alongside our well-regarded psychedelic-assisted therapy training programs," said Paul Thielking, Chief Science Officer, Numinus.
