THAILAND has seized nearly half a tonne of ivory worth an estimated $725,000 (RM2.29 million) smuggled from Kenya in boxes labelled handicrafts, a senior customs officer at Bangkok's main airport said Tuesday.

Some 160 pieces of ivory, weighing 456 kilogrammes, were found in a random search in six wooden boxes on a jet from Kenya - a hub for smuggled ivory - according to Tawal Rodjit, director of customs at Suvarnabhumi airport.

When would human beings learn that animals too has a right to live? Especially these Majestic Beasts whose population is dwindling fast.

Congratulations Thailand for this massive detection!
