10 Bizarre Animal Smuggling Stories

[@essemque]

Thought at first the title card said 10 animal SNUGGLINGS, and was like, "damn, yes, this is the video I need today!" This is great, too, though! Thanks, Erin!

[@SlyPearTree]

Same here, I'll snuggle to a beer or two instead.

[@MatthewTheWanderer]

This is a hilarious comment!

[@joanhoffman3702]

I saw “snugglings” also at first.

#9 reminds me of 'Instead of office chair, package contained live bobcat. Would not buy again."

[@michaelmoorrees3585]

A couple of weeks ago KZbinr Styropyro, bought some heavy duty magnatrons, for his 20KW microwave project. One ended up broken, but inside the package with it, there was a live scorpion, so he called it a win.

That first one about smuggling fish under a skirt was wild and unexpected and a great start to this list!

[@michaeldufresne9428]

That lady with the fish got off way to easy. Its a shame the fish couldn't be returned to their country of origin or sent into an aquarium for display

[@MatthewTheWanderer]

Yeah, especially the arapaima! I've seen those in an aquarium before and they are really cool! However, I imagine that after spending time in a suitcase and a skirt, the fish probably were close to death anyway.

[@Barz1eone]

Ur telling me they couldn't just send the animals back to their native country and pin the bill on the smuggler? Thats the craziest bit.

I missread the title, but a good video suggestion. Weird Animal Snuggling Stories.

The crocodile story sounds crazy enough to be true

[@trevinbeattie4888]

This reminds me of the song “Squirrels In My Pants”

[@luchewigg168]

In elementary school I had a friend who had a zoo-worthy collection of reptiles in a room in her basement,ent. Turtles, snakes, lizards… you name it. They all looked well taken care of, later on in high school I learned that her dad had a friend who worked at TSA at the local airport, and anytime the friend encountered someone trying to smuggle a reptile through security, he’d call up the dad and he’d go rescue them and take care of them at home. Isn’t that wild!

[@melonmelon2848]

Humanity really sucks the further I watch into the video, so many abused animals here 😢

[@GrimmDelightsDice]

Thank you for something my anxious brain can only nominally connect to today/last night's events ♡ Our local zoo has a Geoffrey's cat named after our airport (DIA/Dia) because she was reposessed from a smuggling case ♡

[@Apophis324]

900 spiders in your suitcase?! Imagine accidentally grabbing that one from luggage pick-up instead of your own ((> ~~

[@rhijulbec1]

A long advert before and another 1 minute in! Come on! Fascinating video though!

[@hunterG60k]

Story number 9 made me really sad, those poor babies

[@Fleezblarp]

Stop smuggling the finches.

[@LB-il3se]

Mental floss can you pls do a vid about all the terrible things philosophers have done. Some of them wrote about morals while being terrible people themselves.

[@jphilb]

[@mentalflosserin]

[@SECONDQUEST]

#3 is just wrong. It's not "snakes in my pants," it's "squirrels in my pants." kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4jdpKqQjbmAkLM
