Sounds like a load of crap to me.

US Customs officials seize giraffe faeces from woman at Minnesota airport
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Federal customs agents pooh-poohed the plans of an Iowa woman who wanted to make jewelry from giraffe faeces she picked up on a trip to Kenya and brought back to the U.S. in her luggage.
The woman declared the small box of feces when she was selected to have her belongings inspected upon arriving at the Minneapolis-Saint Paul Airport on Sept. 29, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
The woman, who was not identified, told officials she planned to use the waste to make a necklace, as she had done in the past with moose poop.
Giraffe poop can be brought back to the U.S. with the proper permits and inspections, according to Minnesota Public Radio. The station reported that the woman won’t face sanctions because she declared the faeces and gave it to Customs.
The agency’s agriculture specialists destroyed the giraffe poop.
