A foot-long baby crocodile wriggled out of a passenger's hand luggage and caused panic on a flight departing from the United Arab Emirates, an official at Cairo airport said today.
A crew member on the EgyptAir flight from Abu Dhabi rounded up the wayward reptile and calmed passengers.
The airport security official says the animal was seized and given to the Cairo Zoo. He spoke on condition of anonymity.
Transporting exotic animals in and out of the Egypt is illegal, and none of the passengers on Friday's flight claimed ownership of the baby crocodile.
