A 1.2-METER-LONG complete skin of an endangered crocodile species weighing 536 grams was seized by Shanghai Post Office Customs, it said yesterday.

The skin was identified as coming from a Crocodylus siamensis, which is listed in the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora. The parcel delivered from Vietnam is being investigated. In the first half of the year, Shanghai Customs seized 190 endangered species packages weighing a total of 196.53 kilograms.
