The Strange Things People Carry in Their Luggages!

I've heard of those people who carry animals and strange things in their luggages, some in hope to smuggle animals across borders, others just plain stupid but this one..no no no....big FAIL

Airport staff in Abu Dhabi were rather asked a passenger to open his carry-on luggage and found four snakes, two parrots and a squirrel inside. Really? Why in the world would you carry four snakes?! And a Parrot?...wait 2 parrots..in a hand luggage..Didnt they eat each other?...a squirrel? This guy topped off my strangest things found in travelers luggages list

Apparently a  member of staff had spotted something moving inside  the man's luggage shortly before he boarded a flight. He had already flown into the UAE from Indonesia with the animals, which had been separated in different compartments inside the box. A spokesman for Abu Dhabi police said the man was allowed to continue his journey, but without his collection of animals.
What always surprises me is the naiveness to think that they'll get away with it....
