A few years ago, Amelia Barclow wanted to relocate from the United Kingdom to the San Francisco Bay Area.

Like any international move, it was a bit of a slog.

She had to ship out all of her belongings, go through a customs process, and find a new place to stay.

Those are Barclow's pet ducks, Bean and Wobbles.

Bean, she looks like a pinto bean.

She has little brown and cream spots all over.

Wobbles is because he's very clumsy and very round,

and he tends to fall onto his back a lot like a turtle.

As it turned out, getting Bean and Wobbles to their new home in a new country was no simple task.

We would speak to someone from the USDA who worked in livestock. They'd be like, no, they're pets.

And we go to the people who work for importing pets. They're like, no, they're livestock.

go through. Tropical fish, alligators, lions, tigers, flocks of birds, the occasional duck.

This one family had an emotional support hedgehog, which is absolutely fine.
