Passengers on a bus in Argentina...
... got an unwelcome surprise when police found more than 600 snakes and other reptiles packed in the luggage compartment.
Acting on a tip-off, police intercepted the bus in a northern province bound for Buenos Aires, asked to see passengers' documents, then began poking into their bags. A wildlife smuggler had packed 444 boa constrictors, vipers and other snakes; 186 endangered tortoises; 40 lizards, and an armadillo.
No word on whether there was room left for socks and jocks.
