Aabot sa P3 milyon halaga ng dried seahorses ang nasabat sa pier area sa Zamboanga City.

Nakasilid sa mga kahon ang mga pinatuyong sea horses na natuklasan sa loob ng isang container van.

Ang seahorses ay itinuturing na endangered marines species at ang paghuli nito ay paglabag sa Fisheries Code of the Philippines.

Ayon sa Bureau of Customs ang mga seahorse na ilegal na hinuhuli at saka pinatutuyo ay kadalasang dinadala sa China dahil ginagamit itong gamot doon.

Inaalam na ng BOC kung sino ang nagmamay-ari ng mga kontrabando.
