THOUSANDS OF RARE BIRD EGGS WORTH $500, 000 SEIZED IN AUSTRALIA. (PHOTO).


 A collection of 3,404 eggs have been seized in Australia after a European operation into the illegal bird trade.


Investigators discovered the haul – believed to be worth $400,000 to $500,000 (£207,000 – £259,000) – at a property in Granton, Tasmania on 9 July.


The eggs had been blown – or hollowed out – meaning they only had ornamental value.


A 62-year-old man was being investigated but no arrests had been made, according to officials.


Environmental and wildlife crime has become one of the world’s largest and most profitable crime sectors and continues to grow as it pushes many species to the brink of extinction.


It is expected that the Australian suspect will appear in court at a later date for offences in contravention of the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Act 1999.


“[The man] is alleged to have been involved in the collection and harvesting of bird eggs from the wild and trading of both Australian native and CITES-listed bird eggs with people overseas,” a spokesperson from the federal Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water (DCCEEW) said.


CITES-listed means a species is listed in the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), an international agreement between governments that aims to protect endangered plants and animals from international trade.
