CBP Dog Stops Illegal Shell Import | Salt Lake City News
Description
A CBP dog named Emmie sniffed out a traveler’s suitcase packed with protected marine souvenirs from the Bahamas—conch shells, coral, and seashells. These items are federally restricted to safeguard endangered species and combat illegal trafficking. CBP is urging travelers to declare all wildlife products and check the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service website before packing to avoid fines, confiscation, or legal trouble. This case underscores that ignorance won’t excuse violations when it comes to protecting our natural resources.
