I am reminded of the story of the American who stole rare feathers from a British museum.

The Smithsonian wrote up the story: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/great-feather-...

After the magazine article was published, NPR’s “This American Life” ran a piece about the feather heist: https://www.thisamericanlife.org/654/the-feather-heist
