A ton of deer penises have been seized by customs officials after a raid on smugglers.
The frozen willies were hidden inside three vehicles trying to pass through a border crossing.
They were concealed in the backseat area and spare tyre compartment in the boot, among other areas.

After searching one of the cars, officials opened the many hidden bags and discovered 764lbs (346.7kg) of frozen meat.
They had first noticed something strange thanks to an X-ray image of a passenger vehicle with dual Guangdong and Hong Kong license plates.
Upon further inspection, officers at the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge crossing in China then found several insulated bags in the car.
At the same time, officers noticed two other vehicles with Guangdong-Hong Kong license plates in the same lane.
The drivers appeared to be acting suspiciously, as reported by Need To Know.
Officials moved quickly to intercept the drivers and inspect their vehicles – only to find yet more severed animal genitals.
In a second SUV, they discovered frozen meat weighing 686lbs (311.3kg).
The third vehicle had 658lbs (298.4kg) of meat concealed in bags in various locations in the car.
Combined, the cargo weighed 2,108 lbs (956.4kg).
The meat was later identified as penises from the European sika deer (cervus nippon).
Sika deer penises, often referred to as “deer whip”, are used in Traditional Chinese Medicine and some Asian dishes.
They are believed to have medicinal properties that enhance male sexual function and physical strength.
The three drivers reportedly admitted that they were being paid to transport the goods for others.
Animals, plants, and related products are banned from being transported across the border without prior approval.
The trio faces smuggling charges. The investigation continues.
