Crocodile Head Discovered in Passenger Bag in Italy
A critically endangered crocodile head was seized when it was hidden inside a traveler's bag upon arrival at Turin Caselle Airport from Miami. During the search, it was revealed that the dried head was wrapped in plain wrapping paper and was confiscated as part of efforts to combat the illegal trade of endangered species. The crocodile is protected under the CITES agreement, which safeguards threatened animal and plant species. Following the traveler’s conviction, the penalty includes imprisonment for six months to one year and a fine ranging from 20,000 to 200,000 euros.
