YYC - Man found with 20 dead baby birds in Suitcase
Quote:
Customs agents seized 20 dead baby birds, 100 chestnuts and six bags of homemade cracked wheat and yogurt found in the suitcase of a traveller from Lebanon at Calgary International Airport last week.
The items were first detected by a dog relied on by the Canada Border Services Agency named Rusty.
I love the show Border Patrol so this is no surprise. I recently saw a program where they found a couple of suitcases filled with stuffed, mounted bats. I love watching the dogs do their work, walking around an airport sniffing passengers for drugs, money and food. Yes, they can detect large amounts of paper currency. They also use the dogs at auto border crossings where they sniff around vehicles, particularly door handles, and they jump onto the bed of a truck. They're trained to sit down when they find something. Those dogs are great!
WTF? We're these taxidermy birds? Food? Feathers? Props? Aphrodisiacs?
Don't ask me why, I just want context here.
Yeah, probably a good thing they were seized because of flora and fauna rules. Who knows what the birds are carrying. But weird case. Wondering why he had them in the first place, and what the actual rules/concerns were that made it illegal.
You would be shocked to see what people actually travel with.
e.x Checked an older womens bag to find it was full with bloody kleenex. Not just 1 or even 10 but probably 100 kleenex all with blood and nothing else in her purse.
e.x 2 Buisness man in suit, puts jacket in x-ray, two gigantic vibrators in his pocket.
This is seriously just a random thought as I am generally an eye-roller when it comes to people making large leaps in logic or panic over nothing. I am definitely not panicking, just a question. I just want to see what people think of something like this.
Could this be some other form of terrorist weapon/tactic? Nothing to do with Lebanon being his point of origin, it's the random contents of the suitcase that pique my interest. Dead birds, random seeds, yogurt, nuts; who is carrying these things and why? Is it an attempt to possibly spread some pathogens that we don't have here? Whether it be spreading disease through people, animals, or plants, it could prove to be something rather effective. Is this a known tactic of organizations or am I just an idiot?

Sounds like he's about to get reamed out at his next meeting.

The Following User Says Thank You to PaperBagger'14 For This Useful Post:
A man has been arrested in Cuba - for attempting to board a flight to America with 66 birds sewn inside his trousers.
The bird man was seized at Ignacio Agramonte International Airport in the Cuban city of Camaguay and was picked up because of the curious bulges in his trousers.
After being stopped by customs, the man bizarrely claimed he was only concealing a pigeon as a gift for his grandson.
Potentially nsfw image of birds in trousers. Does not look comfortable in the least...
