According to The Guardian. 50,000 unlawful eggs were found in Norway as part of Operation Pulka, a wider effort that has also found 3,500 illicit eggs in Australia.
I’ll be honest. Before reading this piece, I had never heard anything about the illegal egg market. To stop historians and wealthy individuals from stockpiling unusual eggs for their trophy cases,
The UK declared this a crime in 1954. As a consequence, many creatures have gone extinct over time.
The Wildlife and Countryside Act of 1981 followed, bringing all wild bird eggs under a single protected roof.
The second thing that comes to mind is the average price for one of these eggs. The cost of a batch of live eggs might now reach $100,000.
The price of a rare owl was $490. Thus, there is a clear variation in these prices. I still have a lot of doubts about this unlawful action. Is there a dark web counterpart to eBay for this?
