This gun-toting stuffed armadillo was sent all the way to Australia from Texas as a gift, but was seized at Sydney for breaching Australia's strict laws on wildlife importation.

Officials at the Australian Customs and Border Protection Service joked in a statement that "bad taste should have been enough of a reason not to attempt to bring [it] into the country”.

Some folks have no sense o' humah...

 

What the heck - someone afraid it's gonna go around layin' armadillo eggs and have the country overrun with 'dillos??

 

Shux... I'd think they'd fit right in down there~!

They ought present one as a prize for the texas SASS state match or which ever regional match includes Texas.... and of course the cap pistols should be replaced with a brace of .32 pocket pistols...

 

The Armadillo in Rango was named RoadKill in the credits.... Sort of appropriate to have a stuffed one as a prize at a match LoL

 

Ans to the folks in Oz casting aspersions on the Texas State RoadKill don't they have those giant hopping mice like things down under for their own roadkill?

Oh yes, I can see how they'd be worried that a stuff dillo would cause the next great catastrophic cane toad like invasion.
