Customs Officials Arrest Traveler With 9 Live Birds Hidden In His Pants, Fanny Pack At Miami Airport

By Mary Beth Quirk January 27, 2016

(U.S. Customs and Border Protection)

As the saying goes: three birds in the pants are worth six in the fanny pack. Maybe that’s not quite the expression you’ve always heard, but it does pair nicely with a story out of Miami, where customs officials say a traveler was busted trying to smuggle nine live birds into the country.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers working at Miami International Airport arrested a passenger who was trying to bring a few feathered friends with him after arriving on a flight from Havana, Cuba earlier this month, the agency announced.

Though it’s unclear if officials were tipped off by any tweeting, warbling, or other melodious bird noises, the passenger was selected for further examination, and officers discovered three birds in the groin area and six others in a fanny back he was carrying.

He was arrested and the birds were turned over to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Miami Quarantine Station. It’s illegal under federal law to smuggle live animals into the U.S.

“In addition to enforcing both immigration laws and customs laws at the border, CBP enforces laws for many agencies including the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service,” said Miami International Airport Port Director Christopher Maston.

Remember the movie, "Paul"? When his human friends hit a bird with the motor home, they stop. Paul brings the bird back to life, and immediately EATS IT!

Did anyone think to ask this fellow WHY he was smuggling birds into the country?

Did anyone think to ask this fellow WHY he was smuggling birds into the country?

I'm sure that's the first question.

Possible Answers:

Exotic birds from Cuba could resell for a high price.

He's a bird lover and wanted to raise them himself.

Either way, with 9, he could probably attempt breed them.
