MANILA - Authorities at the Philippines’ main airport have
taken possession of 47 rare animals or birds which an airport policeman was
allegedly trying to smuggle to Japan, a senior wildlife official said Sunday.
The wildlife included 11 tarsiers, 11 snakes, 11 monitor
lizards, eight sailfin lizards, eagle owls and scops owls.
They were found on Thursday, packed in styrofoam cases which
were labelled as aquatic plants, said Theresa Mundita Lim, head of the
country’s biodiversity bureau.
