Two container vans were seized after they arrived in Manila earlier this year under the guise of plastic waste materials. The tusks from adult and baby elephants were broken into pieces, with some weighing as much as 25 kilograms. Customs officials are still searching for three other 20-foot container vans suspected of carrying more elephant tusks.

Local officials say the tusks could be displayed in a museum. African and Asian elephants are protected under the Convention on the International Trade in Endangered Species, which the Philippines signed in 1981.
