Vietnamese police have seized nearly three tonnes of protected animals destined

for the wildlife market in China, state media reported on Tuesday. According to

the An Ninh Thu Do (Capital Security) newspaper, the seizure - including

pangolins, tortoises, lizards and snakes - was one of the biggest in recent

years, with an estimated market value of US$70,000. The shipment was reportedly

intercepted at the weekend just north-east of Hanoi while en route from southern

Vietnam to the north-eastern province of Quang Ninh.
