Cobra, Crocodile Found In Air Passenger's Bag At Cairo Airport - wayodd.com

August 12, 2007
A 22-year-old Saudi youth shocked security officers at Cairo airport with his bagful of snakes, baby crocodiles and chameleons.

Alarmed by the odd readings of his bags at the departure gate, the officers searched the bags and found the mass of slithery creatures to their horror.

The youth said he was unaware of the law restricting transport of reptiles on planes and was allowed to fly to his destination in Saudi Arabia. However, his prized possessions including a cobra were confiscated by authorities and shifted to the zoo.
