The Chinese have tried to send animals to twelve areas, distinguishing them under “plastic toys”. The cost of the shipment is about 1.4 million dollars.

In the United States, a citizen of China has announced, who has tried to illegally carry more than 850 rare turtles and other animals worth about 1.4 million dollars in Hong Kong.

According to NBC News, a man named Vei Qian Lin sent more than 220 parcels, marked them as “plastic toys”.

During the audit, border guards found living turtles connected and wrapped in socks, as well as 11 parcels with reptiles, including toxic snakes. Lin admitted that he intentionally label the shipment so that the animals could make a long “journey” to Hong Kong.

It is about the eastern and cramped boxed turtles – species protected by Cites Convention and the high demand in Asia as strange pets. The unique of these turtles is the hinge on the lower part of the shell, allowing them to completely “close” inside, protecting themselves from predators.
