NY Post
Customs officials agents seized a load of Giant African Snails — known as one of the most damaging snail species in the world — found in a man’s luggage at JFK Airport this week, officials said.
Customs and Border Protection agriculture specialists discovered the 22 highly invasive, slimy critters during a baggage examination of an American man who arrived Sunday on a flight from Ghana, according to a news release. The Giant African Snail consumes at least 500 types of plants and wreaks havoc on tropical and sub-tropical environments, officials said.More Related News
