A South Carolina man is being accused of trafficking “highly venomous snakes” and other reptiles out of his home in Georgia, the Justice Department says.
"Wildlife trafficking is a serious crime that impacts species at home and abroad," said special agent in charge Stephen Clark for the USFWS Office of Law Enforcement, adding how the ATF and Departments of Natural Resources from both states assisted in the investigation. "Together, we have stopped highly venomous snakes, and our nation’s own wildlife, from being smuggled." The Justice Department, citing an indictment, alleges that Rance sold 16 spotted turtles and three box turtles to a Florida buyer in February 2018.More Related News
