(PHOTO) Italian man wanted to leave Croatia with a ton of sea urchins

The article reports on the arrest of a 35-year-old Croatian citizen who was caught attempting to exit Croatia with over 1,000 kilograms of protected black sea urchins. The individual was stopped by police on the A7 motorway near Rupa, where they were found transporting the urchins in special plastic containers. The suspect, who had Italian license plates, was suspected of intending to sell the animals in neighboring Italy, which violates regulations regarding the collection of native wild species. Police confiscated the urchins, returned them to their natural habitat via a police boat, and released them into the waters at a depth of approximately 50 meters. The man was arrested, his vehicle temporarily seized, and he faced charges including illegal trade in protected natural values, forgery of official documents, and possession of prohibited substances.
