BBC Nigeria seizes pangolin haul worth millions 11 Jan 2022 By Chris Ewokor

　7.5mドル…とりあえず、民間人的には途方もない額としか。

「The Nigerian customs service says it has intercepted a consignment of pangolin scales and elephant tusks worth $7.5m (£5.5m) being taken through the country to Asia.

They were found in a car earlier this month in Lekki, an upmarket area of the city of Lagos - in a seizure done in collaboration with the Hague-based Wildlife Justice Commission.

It resulted in the arrest of four suspects with 839kg (1,849lb) of pangolin scales and 145kg of ivory being confiscated.」

　センザンコウが839kg、象牙が145kg。中国で象牙が禁止されて久しいはずだが、なおこれほどの需要が東～東南アジアにあるようで。
