A man from China has been formally charged for trying to illegally transport 163 native Australian reptiles, such as snakes and lizards, to Hong Kong and China. To bypass X-ray security, the animals were hidden alive inside footwear, socks, and toys. Authorities have connected this incident to a global wildlife smuggling network. Those found guilty could be sentenced to 10 years in prison and hit with fines reaching $330,000.
