Italian authorities have seized 377 exotic animals hidden inside a car at the Sicilian port of Pozzallo, including 76 specimens of protected species, the country's financial police said on Monday (October 5). The Guardia di Finanza and customs officers intercepted a Maltese citizen transporting 300 tortoises and 77 parrots as he prepared to board a catamaran bound for Malta. Authorities said the man kept the animals in a vehicle without adequate space or temperature controls. Officers seized the animals and transferred them to a breeding facility for care. #Italy #Sicily #ExoticAnimals #Parrots
