South African police stop scorpion smuggling
South African police managed to stop a 28-year-old man attempting to smuggle 150 venomous scorpions through Cape Town Airport, where he concealed them among his clothes and luggage. He faces charges of illegal possession of wildlife and is expected to appear in court on Monday. The scorpions have been taken to a specialized wildlife center for assessment of their monetary value. The illegal wildlife trade continues to pose a significant threat in the country, particularly as gangs target animals such as rhinoceroses, elephants, and reptiles.
