N2  - The Amazon’s cocaine and illicit-timber trade are linked by their profitability, industrial proximity, and smuggling convenience. The lack of regulatory enforcement in the timber industry provides several opportunities for cocaine trafficking enterprises to benefit. The purpose of this essay is to trace the confluence of the illegal cocaine and timber industries from their points of extraction to their various consumers across the Atlantic Ocean. This research seeks to illuminate the smuggling routes of the two illicit products utilized by Latin American criminal groups, while identifying vulnerable areas upon which policymakers and law enforcement agencies may improve
