Man caught smuggling dozens of venomous vipers on plane
A passenger smuggling dozens of venomous vipers was stopped after flying into the financial capital Mumbai, India from Thailand, Indian customs officials said. The snakes, which included 44 Indonesian pit vipers, were "concealed in checked-in baggage," Mumbai Customs said in a statement late Sunday. "An Indian national arriving from Thailand was arrested," it added. The passenger also had three Spider-tailed horned vipers -- which are venomous, but usually only target small prey such as birds -- as well as five Asian leaf turtles. Mumbai Customs released photographs of the seized snakes in a post on social media, including blue and yellow reptiles squirming in a bucket. The snakes are a relatively unusual seizure in Mumbai, with customs officers more regularly posting pictures of hauls of smuggled gold, cash, cannabis or pills of suspected cocaine swallowed by passengers. However, in February, customs officials at Mumbai airport also stopped a smuggler with five Siamang gibbons, a small ape native to the forests of Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand. Those small creatures, listed as endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature, were "ingeniously concealed" in a plastic crate placed inside the passenger's trolley bag, customs officers said. In November, customs officers seized a passenger carrying a wriggling live cargo of 12 turtles, and a month before, four hornbill birds, all on planes arriving from Thailand. In September, two passengers were arrested with five juvenile caimans, a reptile in the alligator family. Last July, a man was caught trying to smuggle over 100 live snakes into mainland China by cramming them into his trousers. In 2019, the BBC reported officials at the Chennai airport seized a horned pit viper snake, five Iguanas, four blue-tongued skinks, three green tree frogs and 22 Egyptian tortoises from a man travelling from Thailand.

Italy's Mount Etna rumbles back to life with a "lava fountain"
Mount Etna, the rambunctious volcano on the Italian island of Sicily, grumbled back to life on Monday, spewing hot ash and lava in a pyroclastic flow, the nation's volcano monitoring body said. There was no immediate report of any risk to the local population, which is accustomed to Etna's frequent eruptions, or to air travel. The volcano department, which is run by Italy's National Institute of Geophysics and Vulcanology, noted on Monday "explosions of increasing intensity" that it said were "almost continuous." By noon local time, INGV Vulcani said in a social media post that the "explosive activity from the Southeast Crater has become a lava fountain," and infrared images posted by the group showed the flow of lava down the mountain's face. Video shared earlier on the institute's Facebook page showed a massive plume of smoke and ash rising into the clear blue sky. Mount Etna is considered the most active volcano in Europe, and the most active stratovolcano in the world. A stratovolcano — what many people think of when they hear the word volcano — is the conical type, often with a central crater, that is formed by layer upon layer of lava from repeated eruptions over the millennia. Etna had a significant eruption just over a year ago, when it treated watchers to rare ring-like clouds puffed out by its crater, known as vortex bubbles. (See the video at the top of this article.) Etna has erupted at least once every year for the past several years, sometimes covering nearby towns in a layer of volcanic dust, but causing no major problems otherwise.
