Giraffes And Webcams Don’t Mix

Just ask the folks at this zoo.

The webcam was set up recently by the BBC Bristol website at Noah’s Ark Zoo farm in Wraxall.

But Gerald the giraffe, housed in the next pen along, had other ideas.

Owner Anthony Bush said: “I do apologise for Gerald, but he couldn’t believe his luck. He saw this amazing webcam fruit within licking distance.”

“He had nothing else to do all night and licked it until he destroyed it. I’m sorry it’s in bits, I hope it’s recoverable.”

If You Want To Know About Steven Seagal’s Film History

Somebody has written about it.

The cover describes the book as “an in-depth study of the world’s only aikido instructor turned movie star/director/writer/blues guitarist/energy drink inventor — the ass-kicking auteur Steven Seagal. From Above the Law to his Mountain Dew commercials, his entire career is covered in Vern’s inimitable style.” As Vern himself puts it, Seagalogy is “a book that will shake the very foundations of film criticism, break their wrists and then throw them through a window.”

If You Try To Bring In Some Stray Dogs From Sri Lanka

Be careful of the consequences.

Kim Cooling was “nipped” on the chin, wrist and face by the dog, which died two days later in quarantine.

The puppy was one of 13 dogs brought by the charity to Chingford Quarantine Kennels in north-east London.

The three people who were bitten are all “well”, according to the Health Protection Agency.

A spokesman for the agency said: “We understand that three individuals who were bitten by the animal in the quarantine centre have received prompt protective treatment with appropriate vaccination and are well.”

Because the dog died in quarantine, any public health risk was contained, the agency said.
