Border guards have intercepted an unusual illegal trade - dozens of protected birds smuggled across the border.
Geneva’s Bioparc says the animals belong to species covered by international rules on endangered wildlife.
The park is now providing emergency shelter, with quarantine areas set up.
Three birds died from transport-related stress, but the remaining animals have been stabilised.
The Bioparc is now preparing long-term care plans and is appealing for public support.
