Going Abroad (General Check List)
Buyer Beware
Going abroad? Think twice about the things you buy. If
they’re made from the hides, shells, feathers, or teeth of endangered species –
and it’s quite possible that they are – you risk their seizure by government
inspectors and may face a substantial fine.
