A strange story from Melbourne’s airport customs describes a man caught with live pigeons down his pants:

They allegedly found in the man’s pocket a multi-vitamin container holding two birds eggs, and a further search revealed he was wearing tights with the two live birds stuffed inside, one in each leg.

Officers also seized a money belt containing plant seeds and undeclared samples of eggplant in the passenger’s baggage before he was handed over to Australian Quarantine and Inspection Services staff.

Eggs and eggplant? You don’t suppose he was hoping to grow more birds? Anything special about these pigeons? The photo is quite disturbing so I won’t republish it here, but you may want to click on the link above and look just to see how someone could carry two pigeons in his pants.
