1Opinion of the Court
FLAUM, Circuit Judge.
Roland Eyoum pled guilty to knowing receipt, concealment, and sale of illegally imported merchandise, specifically pancake tortoises, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 545. He challenges the enhancement of his sentence under the Sentencing Guidelines (U.S.S.G.) § 2Q2.1(b)(3)(A) for the value of the tortoises and the additional enhancement under U.S.S.G. § 2Q2.1(b)(2) for the creation of a significant risk of infestation or disease. We affirm the district court’s calculation of his sentence.
I
