7,000 DONKEY PENISES INTERCEPTED AT NIGERIAN AIRPORT

Nigerian officials have intercepted 7,000 donkey penises at the Lagos airport after the smell from the packages aroused (*!) suspicion. The donkey penises were being smuggled to Hong Kong in 6 sacks (*!) but customs officers were able to grab them (*!) before they made it onto the plane. The illicit trade of donkey parts – including the animal’s penises and skin – from Nigeria to China is common. The organs are used to make a traditional medicine called ejiao. The suspect linked to the shipment, which is worth an estimated $470,000, managed to escape.
* Jackass.
* Worth $470,000. To us. To the donkeys, they would have been worth so very much more.
* Well, now we know why Eeyore’s so sad.
* Would anybody notice if they just sent some beef jerky sticks instead?
* They say for traditional Chinese medicines, donkey penises can’t be beat.
* “…6,998, 6,999, 7,000. Yep – EXACTLY 7,000 donkey penises.”
* I’ll bet that 7-thousand-and-first donkey gave one big sigh of relief.
