A traveler trying to bring four yak skulls back from Tibet was stopped at Sea-Tac Airport by a dog who smelled something funny.
The traveler told Customs and Border Protection agriculture specialists he found two of the skulls while hiking and bought two more at a village store.
Two of the skulls still had dried flesh attached. They were in a duffel bag that drew the attention of a federal beagle named Woody.
After the alert from Woody on April 30, the man declared he had the souvenir skulls, so he won't be prosecuted.

I wonder how the dog named Woody signals he found something exciting?
