100 pounds (45kg) of dried seahorses were recently seized in an airport in the Philippines - that's hundreds and thousands of individual seahorses gone in one fell swoop!:

Seahorses play a really important role in the food chain, consuming small fish, shrimp and plankton. Seahorses, in turn, are food for larger fish and crabs. So taking this many out of the wild is likely to have a big impact!
The illegal shipment that was seized at Zamboanga International Airport was packed in 3 boxes and shipped through a courier. It was bound for Manila and was falsely declared as barter trade goods. No arrests were reported
According to Project Seahorse, a marine conservation organization, dried seahorses are used for various purposes in the Philippines, such as medical remedies and good luck charms.
