Raptor Smuggling in Australia

[Carl Clifford <>]

Dear All,

I found this item http://morrisonworldnews.com/?p=33283 regarding a  
woman was apprehended trying to smuggle 8 Gryrfalcons out of Russia,  
(not on her body) interesting. You will have to scroll down a bit.
The rapid rise in the popularity of Falconry in the Middle East has  
caused a great demand for raptors. I wonder if the smugglers have  
started to look at Australia for something different.
Cheers,

Carl Clifford
