Please read on the sentence meted to the vietnamese poachers who killed 101 hawksbill turtles in Philippine waters.
According to the WWF article, the Puerto Princesa’s Regional Trial Court, Branch 50, made the decisions on all three cases on 22 June 2010. The resolutions are:
Case No. 23533 for Sec. 87 of the Fisheries Code (RA 8550): Imprisonment of up to six months and fines of approximately PHP 4.5M each.
Case No. 23836 for Sec. 97 of the Fisheries Code (RA 8550): Imprisonment of up to six months and fines of approximately PHP 120,000 each.
Case No. 24388 for Sec. 27 of the Wildlife Act (RA 9147): Imprisonment of up to 18 months and fines of approximately PHP 15,000 each.

We may have taken two years to sentence. Nevertheless, it was still a win for Mother Nature. ;D
DEATH TO ENVIRONMENTAL CRIMINALS!!
