Two men will spend time in federal prison after stealing nearly a hundred sea turtle eggs off of a South Florida beach.
Carl Cobb and Bruce Bivins, both 65, were sentenced for violating the Endangered Species Act.
Bivins got seven months for taking 93 eggs from a nest on Singer Island. Cobb, who dropped Bivins off on the Palm Beach County beach, received a nine month term.
Florida wildlife officers spotted the poaching going on last May and pulled over Cobb while he was driving. They found the eggs in his truck.
Prosecutors say the men intended to sell them.
