A 50-year-old Thai man was arrested at OR Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg, South Africa, last Thursday after authorities intercepted 50 suspected endangered parrot eggs 1. The suspect allegedly transported the eggs as hand luggage concealed within a homemade incubator bag, and some of the seized eggs have already successfully hatched 1. The joint operation was carried out by South Africa's Department of Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment, the Green Scorpions environmental law enforcement unit, and the South African Police Service 1.
If convicted, the suspect faces a maximum fine of 10 million rand, equivalent to approximately $626,000, or a prison sentence of up to 10 years 1. This recent seizure follows a previous incident in July, when a 23-year-old Thai citizen was apprehended at the same airport for attempting to smuggle 418 parrot eggs 1.
