Summary
BEIJING-- Fourteen tons of Chinese fossils are back in their native country after a failed attempt to smuggle them into the United States. The shipment, which includes a 225-million-year-old ichthyosaur and a large number of exquisite crinoids--a kind of echinoderm called a sea lily--dating from the same period, arrived here earlier this month after being seized a year ago in San Diego, California.
