Seven of the top 10 busiest airports last year were in China and three in the United States, according to data from Airports Council International (ACI) World.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection agriculture specialists working at the Dallas Fort Worth International Airport intercepted a shipment of prohibited and restricted pet treats, that was manifested as men’s sweaters.
The shipment did not contain sweaters but instead was chicken lollipop pet treats shipped from Hong Kong and destined for Highlands, Texas.
“Consumers are unaware that some international goods and products are prohibited or restricted because of the potential agriculture or biological risks associated with that product,” explained Dallas CBP Port Director Tim Lemaux.
“When we encounter suspicious shipments, we examine them and then act accordingly. In this case, we seized the shipment to protect our nation’s agriculture industry.”
