From The Houston Chronicle:
MANILA, Philippines — A Filipino man who flew home from Cambodia said he was carrying live fish in his carry-on luggage, until a check at Manila airport revealed three 1.5-foot-long crocodiles, officials said.
The head of the Manila International Airport Authority said it wasn't clear how Enrique Yu Castillo, 50, was able to carry the Siamese crocodiles from Phnom Penh to Singapore to Manila.
The crocodiles are on an endangered species list and their importation is prohibited, airport manager Alfonso Cusi said in a statement.
He said charges were being readied against Castillo, while the reptiles were turned over to the Department of Environment and Natural Resources.
I wonder if they got sick of the mother***king crocodiles on that mother***king plane?
