Forest public security officers seize a total of 457 smuggled dead pangolins in a residential community in Baiyun district of Guangzhou, Guangdong province on September 11, 2014. Pangolins, which are under second-class state protection in China, are often smuggled because their meat is considered a delicacy and their scales are believed to have medical qualities. [Photo/ IC]
