In a plot twist no cowboy saw coming, U.S. agriculture officials 'halted live cattle crossing the border in July' thanks to a new villain: the flesh-eating maggot. 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.
