Do You Really Know Your Neighbors? Police Investigate a Foul-Smelling Home Next Door Hiding a Terrible Secret
A Record-Breaking Case
Soary was one of Madagascar’s top wildlife experts, but even she was unable to save the life of every tortoise found that day. A few weeks after the crazy discovery made local and international news, it was reported that close to 600 rescued tortoises could not resist infection and dehydration.
The radiated tortoise is seen as a delicacy and targeted by many poachers whom local authorities often seize at airports, from Mumbai to Thailand. However, there had never been a case involving this many specimens. If it weren’t for the quick intervention of the police, the more than 10,000 tortoises found in Toliara would’ve died.
