According to Russian reports, the prosecutor in charge of environmental protection in Michoacá n, Mexico, said that the bodies of 300 sharks appeared on the roads in the state. The bodies of these sharks have rotted, and their heads, internal organs and fins are "gone". After receiving the report, the police removed the body for investigation.

Preliminary investigation shows that these sharks were transported by illegal means. The truck carrying sharks to Mexico was attacked. The door opened and the shark fell into the driveway. At the same time, the sharks found do not belong to the three special protected species in Mexico, so the procuratorate believes that the Mexican Ministry of Agriculture should conduct further investigation.

The British reported that Mexican locals said they saw sharks being thrown from the train. The police suspect that these sharks were illegally caught to provide raw materials for food, medicine and cosmetics.

Fox News reported that the local environmental protection department said that these sharks were legally caught in Sonora and sinaloa in northern Mexico and transported to Mexico City by truck, but thieves stopped the truck on the way and drove away secretly, and finally abandoned the frozen shark carcasses on the roadside.
