BLACKPOOL, England, Sept. 21 (UPI) -- A woman used an unusual carrier when she tried to smuggle an iguana into an airport at a British resort -- her bra.
Police at Blackpool Airport discovered the green reptile when they noticed something wiggling beneath the woman's dress, the BBC reported. When the iguana peeked out, she admitted it was hers.
Officials said the woman, who agreed her pet could go to a new home at Blackpool Zoo, wouldn't be prosecuted.
"Due to the security measures in place at the airport, we are used to confiscating many items," airport employee Sue Kendrick told the BBC. "But we never expected to see an iguana."
