That's Just Wong


It's been a little while since I have posted about a smuggler. All I can say is I'm super glad that I wasn't around when this wildlife smuggler was caught. Anson Wong was nabbed at the airport trying to smuggle 95 live boa constrictors in his carry-on luggage. The bag busted open on the scanning conveyor belt. Mr. Wong was sentenced to six months of prison and fined $60,000 for his slithery crime. At least he did not stuff the 95 snakes down his pants. Linda had a 3-foot boa constrictor named Rocky. She said he was very sweet and loved to wrap his body around her neck while she ran the vacuum. He also tried to eat Chip when she was a kitten (seriously) so Linda got rid of Rocky. Maybe that explains why Chip has so many issues now.
