There is as much weird stuff as crazy people passing through airports. Vigilant border guards often come across unusual contraband like the one brought in by a traveler from Kenya who arrived at the Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport in the United States last 29 September.  

US Customs and Border Protection agriculture specialists inspected the small box containing materials for necklaces declared by the passenger.

Inspectors were actually seizing the contents because they were illegal. Obviously, the giraffe droppings obtained by the passenger in Kenya posed a public health risk.

The passenger told inspectors she planned to turn the giraffe feces into necklaces just like she did moose droppings she had smuggled into the country previously, according to the CBP statement posted on its website.

The excrement was destroyed via steam sterilization, according to CBP.

 "If this person had not declared the items and had entered the US, there was a high possibility a person could have contracted a disease from this jewelry and developed serious health issues," said LaFonda D. Sutton-Burke, CBP director of operations at the Chicago Field Office.

Meanwhile, a poop issue spoiled the participation of a contestant in the reality TV show "Bachelors in Paradise," where the cast competes in finding love at a beach resort in Mexico.

The BIP episode in the middle of the month saw Sam Jeffries, 27, receiving advice from the show's on-call physician to go home for a medical checkup.

Dr. Kelly Tenbrink told Jeffries's cast mates she would be disqualified if she failed to meet one condition by the next morning, Outkick.com reported.

She and other contestants had made every effort to meet the doctor's condition by taking laxatives, stool softeners and eating certain kinds of food, including Mexican dishes, to no avail.

And on the 10th straight day that Jeffries still could not poop, she was sent packing, according to Outkick.com.
