They seized 5,776 monitor lizards, which are under first-class national protection; 1,170 cobras; 260 Malaysian box turtles, which are under second-class national protection; and 370 giant Asian pond turtles, which are also under national protection. The animals were worth more than 67 million yuan (US$9.4 million).
I had no idea these herps were worth so much as those figures would show each one was worth an average value of $1,241.
