Pat,

The provision of sniffer dogs at ports of entry does not seem to be a problem in Australia, Canada and the U.S.A. There would of course be the additional benefit of catching a few drug smugglers (maybe our drug promoting government wouldn't want that).

Six overnight 747's arrive from Johannesburg early every morning at Heathrow and sometimes there isn't a Customs Officer to be seen!

Many of the passengers will have travelled from countries such as Botswana, Mocambique, Zimbabwe and Zambia. They pass through Jo'burg as International Transfers and are therefore not checked by South African Customs.

With nobody to stop them at Heathrow it's no wonder the trade in bush meat thrives!

Bill.
