Doi germani și un polonez, prinși pe aeroport cu 3.000 de tarantule ascunse în șosete murdare. Cu cât se vând în Europa

Three individuals, two Germans and one Pole, were caught at Lima's airport with over 3,000 tarantulas hidden in dirty socks. The spiders were en route to Germany and could have generated significant profits from illegal wildlife trafficking. Authorities discovered the tarantulas during a customs check due to unusual movements in their luggage. Each tarantula can sell for around 500 euros in Europe, potentially yielding 1.5 million euros from this single shipment. The suspects are now facing criminal investigations for wildlife smuggling, a highly lucrative crime contributing to global biodiversity loss.
