U.S. customs officers stopped a woman on her way into the country because she was wearing a jewel-encrusted beetle as a brooch - and it was alive.
The woman was entering America from Mexico when she was stopped at a border outpost in Brownsville, Texas.
The live insect - which is studded with gemstones and gold - was fastened to her sweater by a gold chain and safety pin but was able to wander on her jumper.
She declared the live insect to officials and said she had bought it in Mexico as a brooch but it was immediately confiscated by pest control.Link to this video
