Have tortoise, can鈥檛 travel
Print Edition
A TORTOISE was denied boarding at an airport in China after its owner’s attempt to sneak it through security checks “disguised” as a KFC burger failed.
Security staff at Baiyun Airport in the southern city of Guangzhou saw “suspicious corners” on X-ray images of a bag passing through security, the Guangzhou Daily reported yesterday.
They asked the passenger, identified only by his surname Li, to open the bag. Li initially insisted there was “nothing but a burger” inside, but after persistent questioning admitted the package contained a tortoise.
He told officials he wanted to travel with his “beloved tortoise,” the newspaper said.
Li had to leave the animal with a friend and fly to Beijing alone.
