Drug smugglers arrested on the border of the U.S. and Mexico were found to have tried to disguise $500,000 (£347,000) of marijuana as carrots.

The smugglers had hidden the weed in 2,817 orange packages the shape of large carrots and hidden them among several tonnes of real carrots.

Unfortunately for them, a canine team at the Pharr-Reynosa International Bridge didn’t take long to realise that some of the long orange objects weren’t good for your eyesight, and the smugglers were promptly busted on Sunday evening, U.S. Customs and Border Protection said.
