    Hong Kong begins hunting wild boar

    Boar have at times been seen on subway trains, or waiting for the traffic light to turn green at pedestrian crossings by the harbour.

    Thú phạm: thú báo thù?

    First known Covid case was Wuhan market vendor, says scientist
    https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...et-study-finds

    The report, by Michael Worobey, the head of ecology and evolutionary biology at the University of Arizona, will reignite the debate about the origins of the pandemic, which remains unresolved and continues to fuel tensions between China and the US.

    Worobey was one of the 15 or so experts who in mid-May published an editorial in Science demanding serious consideration of the thesis that the virus had leaked from a laboratory in Wuhan. The latest paper, he said, “provided strong evidence of a live-animal market origin of the pandemic”.

    Most early symptomatic cases were linked specifically to the western section where raccoon dogs were caged.

    Free birds: Happy Turkey Day, turkeys.

    Wild turkeys’ rough and rowdy ways are creating havoc in US cities
    https://www.theguardian.com/environm...-havoc-hunting

    The wild turkey has lived in what is now North America for more than 10,000 years, and was branded a “bird of courage” by founding father Benjamin Franklin in 1784.

    It’s also one of the greatest conservation success stories in modern America, going from all but extinct in large parts of the country as recently as the 1970s, to so numerous that the 4ft-tall, 20-30lb, highly adaptable animals have successfully “overrun” hundreds of US cities.

    Trashing homes, intimidating people and holding up traffic, earning their reputation as one of the most bad-tempered neighbours on the block.

    Or, as Scientific American, put it, “ugly hooligan nuisance birds”.

    Cua chạy đua y như mấy cua rơ. Chắc cũng từ sự kiện này mà người Pháp mới có thành ngữ “faire la cua” nghĩa là cua nhau. Tục ngữ Việt nam thì có câu: Người khôn cua khó.

    Một công mà hai ba chuyện:

    Roaming peacocks plague California city
    https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...birds-relocate

    Dozens of feral peacocks and peahens are roaming the streets and leaping from the rooftops of Tracy, California. They claw at shingles and defecate on porches. Their calls, especially in mating season, echo through the community. They have no fear of pets nor people.

    Errant peafowl have milled around the city’s Redbridge neighborhood for years – some believe they originally came from a now-defunct nearby dairy farm – but the numbers have increased as the birds keep multiplying. Now they’re everywhere, and ruffling some residents’ feathers.

    “If this were a pack of 100 rats that were scuffling around the yard or on the roof, no one would wait to deal with that problem,” said Dave Lieberman, president of the Redbridge Homeowners Association. “Unfortunately the peacocks are beautiful birds, you want to admire them, but in these numbers they can be destructive.”

    “They have a peculiar kind of cry that sounds like a baby wailing. It’s a little distressing,” Lieberman said. “It starts early in the morning, it’s loud and then they land on the roofs.”

    Residents have taken issue with the peafowl because of damage to their houses, scratches on cars and the noise from their squawks and rooftop roosting. And then there is the rampant defecation.

    Rắn báo oán: mềm thì nắn rắn thì tha

    Homeowner trying to smoke out snake infestation burns down own house
    https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...house-maryland

    A homeowner in Maryland tried to fight a snake infestation with coal, only to burn their own house down, causing more than $1m in damage. Nobody was injured.

    In Maryland, fire officials said: “Status of snakes undetermined.”

    Cứu sư phụ:

    A US activist took a sick goat from a meat farm – now he faces seven years in jail
    https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...-welfare-trial

    In a landmark case that could predict the future of the right to rescue distressed animals, he faces up to six and a half years in prison for felony charges of larceny and breaking and entering, based on what the video shows him doing next.

    In darkness, Hsiung and othersfrom the activist organization he co-founded, Direct Action Everywhere (DxE), make their way past the farm’s electric fences towards a barn. After placating the guard dogs withvegan peanut-butter treats, Hsiung finds what he’s after: a baby goat – sick, he believes – in a small pen with its mother. They escape with the goat unharmed, but Hsiung accidentally drops a piece of crucial evidence: his driver’s license.

    Should Hsiung be acquitted of charges in his current trial, it could set a legal precedent for the “right to rescue” agricultural livestock. Thirty-one states have right to rescue laws primarily aimed at protecting people from being sued if they break into hot cars to save distressed dogs. Hsiung and other activists want to see more protections provided for those who rescue any animal in distress – not just pets.
