A man tried to smuggle more than 100 live snakes into China by placing them in canvas bags and then hiding those bags in his trousers, custom officials said. The man was stopped after passing through a gate stating he had “nothing to declare” at the crossing between Hong Kong and Shenzhen, according to officials. Upon searching him, the officers found he had 104 snakes in six canvas drawstring bags inside his pants, a statement from China Customs said. “Each bag was found to contain living snakes in all kinds of shapes, sizes and colors,” it added. Video released by Chinese customs shows agents holding up plastic bags filled with live red, pink and white snakes.
