Hello all-
First let me say that I am not an importer nor will I be traveling to South America to collect fish in the near future so this post/question is 100% completely hypothetical. Clearly there are exportation bans on fish from Ecuador due to environmental issues - however, not in Peru. Since both places in fact have some of the same fish my question is.... Would it be possible to collect, Festae for example from Ecuador, cross over to Peru, and leave South America with the fish from Peru? Again, I know there are bans, it's illegal, I know there are checkpoints at the borders and I'm not going any time soon as I don't have the cash lol so HYPOTHETICALLY, is that possible?
