The California Highway Patrol says it took more than 50 pounds of illegal mushrooms off the streets of Merced County.
Last week, officers pulled over 35-year-old Philip Yoon on I-5 near Nees Avenue.
That's when K-9 "Shei" alerted her handler to the presence of narcotics.
Officers say the mushrooms were then discovered- worth about $80,000.
Yoon faces a number of drug charges.
