So when these guys were arrested, did the cops say, "get your paws up."

Policing for profit.

213 bear paws; they must have found a one-footed bear. Seriously, those Chinese are just plain weird. Who would pay, what was it... over $2,000 for a bear paw?

[Bear parts are considered a delicacy in China and are also prized for their perceived medicinal value, but their sale is illegal.]

The influx of Chinese into sub-Sahara Africa is blamed for an increase in Rhino poaching. The Chinese use the powdered Rhino horn for folk medicine.

Won’t go into link but wonder how they got caught.

I am beginning to think that everything is a delicacy to the Chinese.

Bear paws — ranks right up there with pickled pigs’ feet — neither of which are food IMO.

I’ll tell you all something else...bear part poaching by Chinese, Koreans and damnable Americans selling to Asian buyers, has been actively going on in the U.S.A. for 25 yrs or more.
