For example, snake wine, corals, products made from the bones of protected species such as elephants or whales, or animal furs from endangered species have no place in the bag, WWF announced Thursday. Crocodile shoes, snakeskin bags and orchids, among other things, were also banned.
According to WWF, hundreds of objects belonging to protected species are confiscated at Swiss borders every year. Illegal imports include meat from pangolins and monkeys, scarves made from the wool of protected Tibetan antelope, caviar and live animals. Reptile skin products, coral pieces and caviar are frequently confiscated by tourists, especially during travel.
Not all of these products are banned, but some require authorization. According to WWF, anyone found guilty of conscious or unconscious smuggling should be fined up to one million francs.
