Greetings to all forum participants.
Once upon a time I was interested in entomology and collected a small collection of Russian insects. I especially liked moths and hawk moth. I had a dream to go somewhere in the tropics, pick up insects there.
A decade has passed... I haven't been doing insects for a long time. But in February I'm going to Peru for 3 weeks on business. Perhaps there will be an opportunity to fulfill a long-standing dream.
So here's the question. If I collect a few butterflies, beetles, and put them in my luggage - what is the risk and how risky is it? May the customs officers of Peru, Spain, and Russia be interested in insects, or will everyone not care? How risky is it? What should I say if they ask me what it is? The return route is from Lima to Madrid, and from Madrid to Moscow.
Thank you all for your answers.
