The woman was selected to have her belongings inspected upon arriving at the Minneapolis-Saint Paul Airport on September 29th, and she declared the small box of faeces.<\/p>\n<p data-sourcepos=\"5:1-5:241\">The woman told officials that she planned to use the waste to make a necklace, as she had done in the past with moose poop. However, US Customs and Border Protection agents destroyed the giraffe poop, citing the risk of disease transmission.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p data-sourcepos=\"7:1-7:166\">&#8220;There is a real danger with bringing faecal matter into the U.S.,&#8221; Customs and Border Protection&#8217;s Chicago field Director LaFonda D Sutton-Burke said in a statement.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p data-sourcepos=\"9:1-9:185\">The woman was not identified, and she was not fined because she declared the faeces. However, sneaking it into the airport would have cost her a penalty of anywhere from $300 to $1,000.<\/p>\n<p data-sourcepos=\"11:1-11:403\">This incident is a reminder that it is important to be aware of the rules and regulations governing the importation of goods into the United States. Bringing faecal matter into the country is illegal, and there is a risk of disease transmission. If you are unsure about whether or not an item is allowed to be imported, you should check with the US Customs and Border Protection agency before traveling.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A woman from Iowa was caught trying to bring giraffe poop into the United States to make jewelry out of it.
