Man smuggles reptiles in socks.

Customs officials in Norway have arrested a man after he was accused of trying to smuggle 24 reptiles in the country by taping them to his body.

Fourteen royal pythons rolled up in socks were found taped to the man’s torso and 10 geckos held in small boxes were taped to his legs.

“He told us he was crazy about reptiles,” the head of the local customs office, Helge Breilid, told AFP news agency.
