ENSENADA, Mexico -- Mexican officials this week destroyed more than 500 pounds of illegal sea turtle meat that was found during a search operation
along the Baja California coast.
Sea turtle meat is a popular delicacy, but the animals are endangered and Mexico bans the hunting, transportation, sale or consumption of turtle
products.
The turtle meat was kept frozen during a judicial investigation. The federal Attorney General's Office for Environmental Protection announced that the
products -- including meat, fins and heads -- were destroyed Wednesday at a landfill in Ensenada.
