A court in Kenya has sentenced four men to either pay thousands of dollars or face one year in jail for attempting to smuggle ants.
A Kenyan, a Vietnamese national, and two Belgian teenagers were arrested last month with more than 5,000 live queen ants, estimated to be worth nearly a million dollars.
