Ukrainian frontier guards detained spider smuggling

Chop frontier guards fished up the container with dried spiders form Tisa River, the State Frontier Guard press service reported.

There were 49 clear capsules with dead rear insects in the container. All capsules were thoroughly packed and subscribed. The container lay on the river coast under the bridge. The frontier guards supposed it was the second attempt of Ukrainian smuggler to take the spider collection across the Ukrainian border. Several days ago the driver of international bus “Neoline” tried to take it out abroad but the veterinary service prohibited it. Probably this time the smuggler used the river as the only way to carry it out.

The frontier guards noted that the river has become the black way of smuggling fro and to Ukraine.
