The danger is not FROM a conch, rather TO the conch population.
https://help.cbp.gov/app/answers/detail/...%3D/suggested/1Queen conch is in the CITES list.
There is a glass display on the first level of the SXM airport near passport control (before you go upstairs) of items you cannot take. A conch is on one of the shelves.
