Summary

A traveler returning from the Democratic Republic of Congo was stopped at Boston Logan after their dog sniffed out suspicious luggage—inside? Four mummified monkeys. Claiming they were for personal consumption, the passenger ignored U.S. laws banning bushmeat, which can carry deadly pathogens like Ebola. No charges filed, but all luggage was seized and the monkey meat destroyed under CDC supervision—another cautionary tale about border health rules.
