A Norwegian reptile incident from Reuters…
A man was caught by Norwegian customs carrying a tarantula in his bag, and a further 14 royal pythons and 10 albino leopard geckos taped to his body, media reported Monday.
Hmmm…Just how did the crack Norwegian customs officers come to suspect the reptile offender?
“Customs officers quickly realized the man was smuggling animals, because his whole body was in constant motion,”
14 of these…
…plus, 10 of these…
…strapped to your body…yup, that could make a fellow a might fidgety.
I found it a bit odd that the guy was only fined 12,500 Norwegian crowns ($2,256) but, I defer to the Norwegians as they are known for their practical judgment.
These are elusive and powerful forces we are dealing with here. You might want to take a gypsy holiday.
