A 32-year-old Canadian man was arrested at Delhi airport for carrying a crocodile skull in his luggage. The man was stopped during a routine security check on Monday, where customs officers discovered the skull wrapped in cloth. Weighing 777g, the skull was confirmed to be that of a baby crocodile, a protected species under India's Wildlife Protection Act. The man allegedly purchased it in Thailand without the necessary permits. Authorities have seized the skull, and investigations are ongoing to determine the exact sub-species. A case has been registered against him for violating wildlife protection laws.
