Regardless of how they get the item, it's the same case, "any foods are not allowed" into the border.

[@wilson1799]

Too many people are misunderstanding the purpose of the fine. What item being destroyed is worth more: a single apple or mountains of produce and food? You paying $300 and losing an apple is in no way the same punishment as someone paying $300 and losing their entire stockpile of food and goods they were expecting to make profits on. The difference is in the destruction of the goods, not the solid fine.

It's not like those women harvested the bile themselves. That bottle contains belladona and creosote which are plants. I think most people who buy these "Chinese herbal medication" have no idea how they are made, and I think that girl was probably give that bottle by her mum or other relative to treat her ailments. You can see on the bottle there is writing in Thai so my guess is that it was produced in Thailand. A lot of Asian and south asian countries harvest animal products, because it is their culture. From a Western lens, of course it is cruel. We should be educating people in impoverished developing countries who rely on traditional medicines because they cannot afford Western health care instead of blaming them for being intentionally cruel and horrible.

They need, must raise the fines to something outrageous and stick to it. Print boldly the amount on that card they have to fill out. Maybe that will stop them or at least give them pause while packing. It has to be costly dumping all that nasty foods/seeds/plants etc. so they should have to pay that cost and for the aggravation having to go through all that nauseating stuff. As for the rest they should be on a 3 yr exclusion, not just a "possible three year exclusion". I guarantee you Asians always carry enough money to cover that small fine.

Either way, by the time they've packed their baggage and it's checked onto the plane, it's too late to get rid of anything. This all said, in China, they sell and eat animal products that should NOT be handled let alone eaten by humans. This is what caused the global pandemic we just lived through (well, some of us didn't live).

When I see this on here all the time it gets a little bit ridiculous. If you really want to stop this, put your fines up to a minimum $5000. The damage could be done to your Eco structure is massive. if you’re really serious about protecting it, you have to take more drastic measures because these people don’t really care. They absolutely do not care.
