Huang suspected of smuggling tiger bones sit in a trial in Kunming City, the capital of Southwest China’s Yunnan Province. Chinese passenger Huang was found to carry 7.763 kilograms of tiger bones, with a market value of 480,000 yuan ($72,400), when he returned from working in South Africa on Feb. 6, 2015. Facing criminal charges at a trial, Huang pleaded that he had received the bones from his African friends and thought they were bones from wild buffalo at that time. Huang, born in the 1980s, also said that he wanted to use them to soak with grain alcohol and then give to his parents to cure rheumatism, a remedy suggested by traditional Chinese medicine. The court will announce its findings later. (Photo/CFP)
