US Halts Cattle Over Maggot Apocalypse Near Mexico

This creepy crawler, spotted in southern Mexico, is 'creeping north,' causing officials to channel their inner horror fans and slap a stop sign on cattle movement. It’s like a bad sequel to The Fly but with less Jeff Goldblum and more government red tape. Because when maggots start playing border patrol, you know Texas BBQ is nervously checking its rearview mirror.
