Correctional officers in B.C. found a second pigeon wearing a tiny backpack designed to smuggle drugs into a prison, this time at the Matsqui Institution in Abbotsford

Correctional officers have found a pigeon wearing a mini backpack seemingly designed to smuggle drugs into a B.C. prison — again.

"It's mind-blowing, to be honest, but not surprising," said Randle. "Every time officers step up their game and sort of start making gains on contraband introduction, the inmates think of the next way to do it." "What if this pigeon, or even a drone or anything else, chose to land somewhere that it shouldn't have with something like methamphetamine in its little backpack? Who gets their hands on it?" Randle said."For places like Matsqui Institution, you know, they have these giant outdoor sports fields that probably have hundreds or thousands of pigeons in them on some days," he said.

A spokesperson for the Corrections Service of Canada said it was not investigating any incident related to carrier pigeons at the Matsqui Institution.
