Broadcasting legend Sir David Attenborough found himself being held up at Auckland International Airport today.

But there was nothing sinister going on – the legendary environmentalist posed with MPI staff and sniffer dogs for a photo.

Posted to Twitter, the photo shows two customs staff with dogs posing with Attenborough.

It was captioned: “And now, out of it's natural habitat, we see the lesser-spotted Sir David Attenborough in NZ! 😍 😍 😍”


Sir David is in the country for his sold out stage shows this week in Auckland.

If you are lucky enough to have bought tickets to Sir David Attenborough: A Quest For Life; you’ll see him performing this Wednesday and Thursday at The Civic.
