March 9 (UPI) -- Some of the most unusual items found in lost and unclaimed luggage last year included a robot, a bionic knee, a meteorite and a beekeeping suit, a new report says.
Unclaimed Baggage, the United States' only authorized reseller of lost luggage, released its third annual Found Report, an accounting of the items lost or abandoned by travelers last year.
The most unusual finds from the report include a fully-assembled robotic unit "featuring fully articulated joints, electric motors, wiring and control components."
Another unusual piece of mechanical engineering was a powered prosthetic knee joint with an integrated motor, electronic controls and metal housing.
"When found, the model was still in online trial phases, indicating clinical testing or early-stage use," the report states.
Some of the other bizarre items in the report include a full set of 10-karat diamond grills, a fragment from a meteorite that fell to Earth in 1576, a pair of fire poi used for fire dancing and flow arts, a 1-ounce bar of pure gold from The Perth Mint in Australia, a matching set of samurai swords, a full beekeeping suit, a set of gold-plated golf clubs and a didgeridoo made from teak wood.
Other notable odd finds included taxidermy deer foam, a frog purse, a pre-World War I U.S. Army bayonet, a giant stuffed goose, a long bone specimen, an armadillo purse, a 12-pack case of sardines, a fake skeleton, a suitcase full of rat poison and a feather bow tie.
The report said the most common items found in 2025 included clothing items, jewelry, cellphones, shoes, device accessories, headphones, coats, tablets and books.
