A man has been questioned by police at LaGuardia airport in New York after smuggling a monkey onto a flight from Florida by hiding it under his hat.Sounds like someone's career in security is about to come to a screeching halt.
Passengers spotted the animal when it climbed out and perched on the man's ponytail, Spirit Airlines spokeswoman Alison Russell told reporters.
Ms Russell said the monkey - a marmoset - spent the remainder of the flight in the man's seat and was well-behaved.**********

Police were called about midnight by residents who saw the 300-kilogram bear from the Zooz Nature Park.
