DENVER — More than 200,000 people pass through Denver’s airport each and every day, on average, according to FlyDenver.com. And in the rush of travel, many people leave a whole lot of stuff behind. That’s where the airport’s lost and found department comes in.

The majority of those items come from the TSA security checkpoints, but other things that are found on concourses, on the train, in the parking garage or the bathrooms also end up here. “We probably say like the top five are bags, IDs, glasses and electronics and jewelry,” Aguirre said. Aguirre said the department has found elk meat, urns and other packaging containing human remains, and dogs in the parking garage. The last two involved calls to the county coroner and animal control.“We're always trying our best to return these items back to the owner,” Aguirre said.
