Benin, 23 Dec 2016
A trafficker arrested with 11 dwarf crocodile skins, python skins and other contraband. He was concealing the skins in a hotel, where he intended to sell it. Dwarf crocodiles are listed at the Appendix I of CITES, but their population is severely depleted as tens of thousands of them are hunted every year for meat and skin.
