(Gray News) – A woman returning from Kenya tried to bring giraffe poop into the United States, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
Authorities said the passenger declared the box of feces and stated she had obtained the droppings in Kenya, planning to make a necklace with them.
The woman also said she had used moose feces in the past at her home in Iowa.
“There is a real danger with bringing fecal matter into the U.S.,” CBP director LaFonda D. Sutton-Burke said.
“If this person had entered the U.S. and had not declared these items, there is high possibility a person could have contracted a disease from this jewelry and developed serious health issues.”
Customs and Border Protection said African swine fever, classical swine fever, newcastle disease, foot and mouth disease and swine vesicular disease are all found in Kenya.
Agriculture specialists seized the box and destroyed the excrement with steam sterilization.

It's no use thinking that maybe you've seen everything - there's always going be something stranger than fiction happening.
I wonder if she has any pics of previous pieces of jewelry made from droppings.
If I brought such a thing home to my wife, for once, she'd be accurate in calling it a piece of shit.
So in other words she was bringing in a pile of crap...
How to start off a great Saturday morning...🤣🤣🤣
It made my Friday night, I went to bed smiling. As you and i know, America doesn't need any more shit happening these days.
