That's neither a brag nor an admission that one hears every day. But that's what Robert Cusack told Customs agents at LAX: Back in 2002, Robert Cusack decided it was a good idea to try to smuggle Slow Loris Pygmy Monkeys in his underwear. All was going well for Robert, until the rare birds he had hidden in his luggage got out and flew around the Customs Agents at LAX. It was then that Mr Cusack decided he had to come clean stating, “I have monkeys in my pants.” Cusack ended up spending 5 1/2 months in prison and paid an $1,100 fine. His friend was a little bit more lucky, eluding the law for four years.
Chris Molloy was Cusack's traveling companion on the same flight but managed to get through customs with two newborn Asian leopard cats in his carryon luggage. He promptly ran to a hotel and called his sister for help in getting rid of the cats. After four years of investigating, authorities arrested Molloy on Monday in Palm Springs. |

Along with many others in this world, wildlife smugglers make a powerful case in favour of the re-introduction of public floggings. |

| Except we can't, because innocent monkeys in their pants might be hurt.
