Gaza woman found with crocodiles strapped to body
Associated Press, THE JERUSALEM POST Mar. 26, 2007

A woman was caught with three crocodiles strapped to her waist at the Gaza-Egypt border crossing after guards noticed that she looked "strangely fat," officials said.

The woman's odd shape raised suspicions at the Rafah terminal in southern Gaza, and a body search by a female border guard turned up the animals, each about 50 centimeters (20 inches) long, concealed underneath her loose robe, according to Maria Telleria, spokeswoman for the European observers who run the crossing.

"The woman looked strangely fat. Even though she was veiled and covered, even with so many clothes on there was something strange," Telleria said.

The incident, which took place on Thursday, sparked panic at the crossing.

"The policewoman screamed and ran out of the room, and then women began screaming and panicking when they heard," Telleria said. But when the hysteria died down, she said, "everybody was admiring a woman who is able to tie crocodiles to her body."

I have to say, political situation aside, this is by far the most bizarre news story I have ever come across. Why does she have crocs? What does she do with them? Where did she get them? I find people's behavior to be a bit odd and disturbing at times. Spooky!!

Perhaps there's a market for them as pets, and it may be illegal to have them there. Or, perhaps she was just getting ready to do the Crocodile Rock. Hah; I slay me!
