Yikes! Two TONS of Snakes & Tortoises Seized
Yes, that's right. TWO TONS. In Cambodia. Luckily, they were alive and released back into the wild.

Cambodian police confiscated two tons of live snakes and tortoises and arrested two men trying to smuggle the slithering cargo up a river from Cambodia to Vietnam, authorities said Thursday.
Acting on a tip, police intercepted the boat Wednesday on the Bassac River in southeastern Cambodia just before it crossed into Vietnam. They found 3,640 pounds (1,655 kilograms) of snakes, mostly pythons, and 263 tortoises that weighed a combined 697 pounds (317 kilograms), said Col. Chan Savouen, deputy police chief of Kandal province.

Thai Police Rescue Monkeys Bound for Restaurant
Just awful. Thank goodness these were rescued.
Why am I not surprised that they were going to Chinese restaurants?
Thai Highway Police in Sa Kaeo province have rescued 24 baby crab-eating monkeys, arresting a Thai driver and five undocumented Cambodians attempting to smuggle the endangered species to Cambodia, where they were destined for cooking pots in....Chinese specialty restaurants in Cambodia.
Why am I not surprised that they were going to Chinese restaurants?
