More than 3,000 tarantulas have been seized by authorities at a major airport in Peru.
They were hidden inside socks and packed into the suitcases of two Germans and a Polish citizen who were checking in for a flight to Germany.
The investigation was prompted by an anonymous tip off to Peru’s National Forestry and Wildlife Service.
