webfact Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Two arrested for trying to smuggle 105 pangolins into Laos By The Nation Two Thai men were arrested in Chaiyaphum on Tuesday after police found 105 live pangolins hidden in two SUVs heading to the Lao border in Nong Khai. Pramote Kerdlamool, 32, and Payao Supsinthu, 38, both from Samut Songkhram, were arrested at the Chong Sam Mor road checkpoint in Chaiyaphum’s Kon Sawan district at 10am. The men were driving two Toyota Sport Rider vehicles, with one following the other. The 105 pangolins, with a total weight of more than 1,000 kilograms, were found inside the vehicles. The men said they bought the pangolins from Lad Lum Kaew and were heading to the border in Nong Khai’s Phon Phisai district. They planned to sell the animals in Laos, where they would have made a huge profit.

giddyup Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Only a question of time before these beautiful creatures are extinct. In one way I won't be sorry to leave this world, seems humans won't be satisfied until they've destroyed every living creature besides themselves.

taipan1949 Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 This is when jail just is not enough. Too bad they don't have the cane here as an addition for this crime. It just does not bother some people that they are contributing to the extinction of a beautiful creature. I only used the word "people" as I don't want to get "banned" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
