Aboard a bus in central Vietnam, police discovered 18 frozen bear legs on Tuesday. The bus driver and bus owner told police that a man had paid them to drive the macabre booty from Laos to Vietnam, Thanh Nien News reports.

Police confiscated the legs, which weighed nearly 84 pounds (38 kilograms), and the bus for further investigation. The final destination was unclear, but the shipment originated in Laos, a major source of illegal wildlife products for the Asian market.

The legs were from sun bears, according to the report, which are native to the tropical forests of Southeast Asia and parts of China. They’re endangered in Vietnam. While data on their numbers are scarce, their populations are believed to be in decline in the wild because of deforestation and the illegal trade in their body parts, according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature.

Sun bears are hunted for their paws, which are used to make bear paw soup, a delicacy in China and some other parts of Asia. They’re also hunted for their gallbladders, from which bile is taken for use in traditional medicine. (Watch: Inside the Disturbing World of Bear Bile Farming).

As sun bear and Asian black bear (also known as moon bear) numbers have decreased, the poaching of black and brown bears in North America has increased, as has poaching of brown bears in Russia.

Here are other wildlife crime busts, convictions, and investigations around the world announced this past week.
