Hi,
This is my first time posting in this section. I am in Taiwan and recently aquired a fresh cobra skin immersed in ethanol (in a water bottle). Tomorrow I am flying Northwest Airlines back to the states and was wondering if anyone knows whether I can bring this bottle back? Would the snake or the ethanol be confiscated by customs? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

booooo.....
I just researched a random customs information site and i guess you can't bring reptile hides to the US. If anyone can dispute this, please let me know. Thanks again.
have you thought of shipping to your house

The airline folks probably wouldn't be too happy about a water bottle full of ethanol regardless of what else was in the bottle.

I actually got different responses in the Venomous Reptiles forum about this and realized cobras were under CITES protection. I responded about it:
