Follow up success by Madagascar Customs with 4 arrests and more suspects sought after Thai enforcement authorities seize over 1250 radiated tortoises and 48 lemurs. Very good cooperation before and after the takedown. Takes a network to defeat a network.

Very good work by NED, USFWS, DSI, DNP, AGO, UNODC and the WJC to shut down this global trafficking network operating on 3 continents. Months of investigative work culminated in this arrest and seizure of tortoises and primates worth over $1.25 million US
