German customs agents find 1,500 hidden tares in spongake expedition

German customs authorities recently made a creeping discovery when they found around 1,500 young Tarentulas hidden in a spongake box expedition.

The package, which had arrived at German Airport in Cologne Bonn three weeks ago from Vietnam, weighed more than 15 pounds and had a notable smell that changed the managers, according to a press release from the Cologne customs office.

“My colleagues at the airport are regularly surprised by the contents of prohibited packages from around the world, but the fact that they have found around 1,500 small plastic containers containing young Tarentulas in this package left the most experienced among them speechless,” said Jens Ahland, spokesperson for the Calogne Customs Office, in a statement.

“An extraordinary crisis for German customs, even if we are saddened by what some people do to animals only for profit.”

Many Tarentulas did not survive the trip and surviving spiders were placed in professional care. Criminal procedures are underway against the package recipient in the Sauerland region of the country, according to the press release.

Last year, a passenger was broken at Miami International Airport for trying to get on a plane with a bag of snakes in the passenger’s pants. The TSA shared images of reptiles on X at the time, writing that Florida officers “detected this bag of snakes hidden in passenger pants at a checkpoint”.
