A traveller from Cuba to Toronto on WestJet airlines smuggled four iguanas into the country. He was caught at customs but two of the creatures had already escaped his bags and were loose in the hold of the plane. As a result, the aircraft was delayed from taking off on another flight, this one to Vancouver. Apart from anything else, it seems iguanas are capable of chewing through or damaging wires. The plane was fumigated, the animals found and wires checked before taking off again.
