Police in south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region have intercepted substantial hauls of smuggled wild animals and animal products in two border cities.

Fangchenggang City police told Xinhua on Saturday that they had intercepted a sedan, in which they found 90 infant crab-eating macaques. It is alleged that the state-protected wild animals, which originate from southeast Asia, were smuggled into China via Fangchenggang's Dongxing City on the China-Vietnam border.

Also on Saturday, Chongzuo City police announced that they had confiscated 102 python skins in Chongzuo's Pingxiang City, which also borders Vietnam. Pythons are first-class protected animals in China.

The investigations continue. Endi
