300 TARANTULAS AND DOZENS OF DANGEROUS INSECTS
At Jorge Chavez International Airport in Lima, the capital of Peru, the abnormal bulge in the abdomen of a South Korean passenger caught the attention of the security personnel during the security check. Investigations revealed that the suspicious passenger was carrying various dangerous animals under their sweater. Airport police found 300 tarantulas, approximately 100 centipedes, and nine bullet ants in special bags wrapped around the passenger's abdomen. It was determined that the animals were being transported wrapped around the body in small plastic bags. Biologist Pilar Ayala from the Peruvian National Forestry and Wildlife Service stated that all the seized animals were placed under protection and that strict measures were being taken against wildlife trafficking.

The passenger, identified as an animal smuggler attempting to illegally bring dangerous animals into the country, was taken into custody. Ayala noted that the animals were transported in small zippered bags and covered with filter papers, and that the passenger's body was secured with two belts.
