Genuine American Monster Level: 70 CS Original | A Mexican man was arrested upon arrival in Mexico City after flying from Lima, Peru with 18 titi monkeys strapped around his waist. While the monkeys traveled in his luggage, Roberto Sol Cabrera placed the endangered monkeys into socks that fit into a waist girdle "to protect them from X-rays," though two of the monkeys did not survive the journey, sadly. Police said Mr. Sol Cabrera behaved "nervously" when questioned at customs, not surprising given the amount of squirming primates near his privates. He reportedly paid around $30 per monkey in Peru that could fetch up to $1,550 each as exotic pets on the Mexican market. He is being investigated on charges of trafficking an endangered species. http://www.gadling.com/2010/07/20/man-arrested-in-mexico-smuggling-18-monkeys-in-his-pants/ | |||||
