Dinosaur bones

Yes, you read that right—criminals have managed to steal dinosaurs. Eric Prokopi stole the skeletons of over half a dozen dinosaurs from Mongolia and smuggled them back to the U.S. The bones were said to have been worth over $1 million. Prokopi was caught by the FBI and sentenced to three months in jail. The dinosaur bones were returned to Mongolia.
