Gun-toting armadillo detained

`An armadillo kitted out with a toy pistol holster, cowboy hat and sheriff’s badge has been detained by Customs officials enroute from Texas to Adelaide.

The stuffed animal, which was mounted on its hind legs on a timber board, was detected while Customs officers screened international cargo in Sydney recently.

It is illegal to import armadillos without a permit.’
