Police officers in South China's Guangdong province seize over 2,000 dead pangolins while busting a wildlife trafficking case on September 14, 2015. The police found 2,674 pangolin carcasses hidden in 414 cool boxes. Pangolins, which are under second-class state protection in China, are often smuggled because their meat is considered a delicacy and their scales are believed to have medical qualities. Under China's criminal law, those who illegally catch, kill, buy or sell endangered wild animals on the state's key protection list could face more than 10 years in jail and fines.(Photo/CFP)
