So I’ve got 2 pieces or coral I really want to take of Aus with me and I fly out tomorrow. I saw some other reddit posts of someone asking how to go about this and they got completely destroyed for it.
I just want someone to just answer my questions pls, I know illegal harvesting is bad but I took this from a beach where it was allowed in NSW.

Will they likely just let it slide or do they always flag it and take it? Will they fine me? Do I ruin my chances by declaring it? Should I ship it to myself with auspost instead?

If you wanna be stingy go ahead but I’m sure you’ve been on flights, eat seafood, buy a new phone every couple years and so on..

I’m going to magnetic Island in a bit and I wanna do a full day of hiking along with some cool stops and snorkeling. If I’m fit with a good pace, how much can I do in one day and what should I definitely add to my list?

I need my photos back!
My phone was set back to factory settings and I only have 1 device thats logged into my google account. Now when Im trying to login to Icloud it wants me to scan the QR with a trusted device thats logged in. But I don’t have that. Nor can I use the recovery phone number to send a code to cause for some reason thats the landline for 10 years ago.. I tried everything including going to the apple store, every recovery method in google and what not.
I care most about all my photos with my childhood memories, not so much about my accounts.
Can someone please help me out.

I had my phone erased because of parental controls and Screen Time glitching consistently. after I creating a new iCloud passcode and backed my phone up to the cloud. I was told it was the only way to solve the problem. What I was not told is that I would need trusted devices, trusted phone numbers, or access to my Google account to log back in because of two-factor authentication.
I do not have access to either phone number attached to my iCloud account. I also do not have access to my passkeys because iCloud locked me out, and I cannot use Google because it also has two-factor authentication enabled. I only owned one phone, which was the only device signed into my Google account. So now I am in a twofactor authentication lockout. I cannot afford to lose this account. Please help me.
