Australia seizes $140K+ cockroach contraband
The Australian government seized more than 100,000 live exotic cockroaches, including dubia and Madagascar hissing species, in New South Wales. Valued at approximately $140,000 USD, the operation was the largest confiscation of illegal invertebrates in the country’s history. The authorities warned that illegally breeding and trading these species poses a risk to Australia's native wildlife and agriculture. The seized cockroaches will be euthanized as they have not undergone environmental risk assessments.
