Drug-Sniffing Lizard Is on the Case…Or Is It?
Drug-sniffing dogs are so yesterday.
The police department in Avondale, Ariz. has pulled a fast one on the public with this Facebook post announcing it had sworn in a bearded dragon named Iroh to help suss out drugs.

KNXV initially bought the hype, as evidenced by the below video:

Interestingly, the Avondale PD has been down this road before with Iroh, so you'd think the media would've learned that whole "fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice shame on me" thing we've heard since we were kids.
