Australia seizes $200K illegal insects including giant hissing cockroaches
Australian authorities seized over 100,000 illegal exotic cockroaches worth AU$200,000 from a breeder in New South Wales. The shipment included Madagascar hissing and dubia cockroaches, both prohibited from import and sale, due to their potential to spread disease and harm native ecosystems. The cockroaches, often sold as reptile food, will be destroyed, and penalties may apply to those involved in their possession or trade.
