Exotic animals seized while trying to smuggle
Smugglers take out exotic animals, many of which are on the verge of extinction, tens, hundreds, and another, and kilograms. Sometimes it is possible to delay the attackers, though God knows what percentage of such crimes can be prevented and how many criminals remain unpunished and many animals are killed in the course of transportation here.
See the description of the collection in a few cases catch smugglers specializing in exotic animals that have taken place over the past month and a half.
One of many small Indian roofing turtles that were seized on June 2 in Bangkok, the Thai authorities when trying to smuggle out of the country.
Total during the raid were seized more than four hundred and fifty Indian roofing turtles, 35 young starry turtles, crocodiles five-gavials and other exotic animals, only a total of 1 million Baht (33 thousand dollars). All this human cargo smugglers trying to carry the baggage. At the same time, owners of smuggled luggage managed to escape before they managed to arrest the police.
Earlier in May this year, customs officers in Manila managed to detain the goods for a total of 35 million pesos (808 million dollars), which was 161 stuffed sea and green turtles, about 21 thousand pieces of black corals, more than 7, 3 million sea shells and 196 kilograms octocorals Muricea.
And this 2-month-old baby leopard - one of many exotic animals smuggler from Saudi Arabia was trying to hold in suitcases through the airport in Bangkok on May 13. The luggage was at the Arab almost a zoo!
Enterprising Arab, who had a ticket to the first class on a flight Bangkokk Dubai tried to take out a whole group of rare animals, among whom were four baby leopards, one Malayan bear-biruang one young barnacle gibbon, black-crested marmazetka, two macaques and cub Asia black bear (pictured). For Thailand's attempts to export of live fauna smuggling - are not uncommon. Very often, trying to take - lizards, turtles and snakes, but a "set" of living mammals in the same "party" surprised even seasoned Thai customs.
Woe smuggler who turned 36-year-old Nur Mahmudr, was arrested at the airport around midnight on May 13 by police in plain clothes. Current Thai undercover police officers from the department to combat smuggling and trafficking of banned goods, watched Mahmudrom since buying them on the black market animals. Arrested face charges of smuggling.
Most of the animals that are trying to take out of Thailand, a citizen of Saudi Arabia, was about two-three months. One such "commodity unit" is the Thai black market about five thousand dollars, while in Dubai prices are much higher. Most likely the animals were intended for resale. In the photo: two-leopard cub.
When authorities opened the Arab luggage full of live load, most of the remaining animals were lethargic and yawned a lot, probably from the fact that the day before they were given sleeping pills, or from lack of oxygen. All the animals were in tiny cages, boxes, which could hardly move. Immediately after the confiscation of all seized animals was immediately given medical assistance. The photo - a 3-month-old baby gibbon Barnacle.
And this curious toddler - newborn lizard, pangolin, seized from smugglers April 20 in the same Bangkok.
In total, the party, there were 173 live smuggling pangolin, as well as 130 kilograms of dried snakeskin totaling 66 thousand dollars. Pangolin are on the verge of extinction and are listed as endangered. Lizzies tried to smuggle through Laos to China, where pangolins are widely used in traditional medicine.
