The Live Beetle Jewels Of Texas: Border Police Stop Showy Insects From Entering US
by Anorak | 24th, January 2010
THIS is the jewel-encrusted beetle worn by a woman travelling from Mexico to the US. Stopped at Brownsville, Texas, she declared the live insect, decorated with blue and gold. The live broach beetle was attached to her top by a gold chain and safety pin.
It was confiscated.
One wonders how the US plans to stop all beetles from entering the country. Perhaps a huge tray can be dug and filled with glue.
What is clear is that man can improve on nature with some Tip-Ex and a bag of glitter.
