A stowaway rodent caused a passenger jet flight from Oslo to Malaga to be diverted yesterday.

The SAS Scandinavian Airlines flight was anything but routine, as stunned passengers reportedly witnessed a mouse jump out from a food tray that had just been served by a flight attendant and scurry off down the plane's cabin.

Travel website Paddle Your Own Kanoo reported that the captain soon alerted passengers the flight with 180 passengers onboard would have to be diverted to Copenhagen so the plane could be inspected.
Local news station NRK confirmed a mouse had been spotted onboard flight SK4683 with an SAS Scandinavian Airlines spokesperson.
They reportedly explained how it was "normal procedure" to land a plane immediately so it could be inspected.
Passengers were later put on a replacement flight and made it to their destination without their stowaway.

A zoo in Finland will return two giant pandas to China eight years early, saying it can no longer afford to look after them.

Lumi and Pyry were brought to Finland in 2018, after the two countries signed an agreement to protect the animals.

They were meant to stay in the Nordic country for 15 years, but will be sent home in November – with Ähtäri Zoo blaming inflation and debt linked to the Covid pandemic for the pandas' eviction.

It also said the zoo spent €1.5m (£1.2m) a year on the pandas' upkeep, as well as more than €8m on their enclosure.

US man sentenced to six months for creating giant hybrid sheep

Sarah Brown, an attorney with the US Department of Justice, had asked that Schubarth be sentenced to prison, saying his illegal breeding operation was widespread, involved other states and endangered the health of other wildlife.

Schubarth owns Sun River Enterprises LLC, a 215-acre (87-hectare) alternative livestock ranch, which buys, sells and breeds “alternative livestock” such as mountain sheep, mountain goats and ungulates, primarily for private hunting preserves, where people shoot captive trophy game animals for a fee, prosecutors said.

Schubarth pleaded guilty in March to charges that he and five other people conspired to use tissue from a Marco Polo sheep illegally brought into the US to clone that animal and then use the clone and its descendants to create a larger, hybrid species of sheep that would be more valuable for captive hunting operations.

Marco Polo sheep are the largest in the world, can weigh 300lb (136kg) and have curled horns up to 5ft (1.5 meters) long, court records said.

Bird flu kills tigers in Vietnam zoos

Forty-seven tigers, three lions and a panther have died in zoos in south Vietnam due to the H5N1 bird flu virus, state media reported.

The deaths occurred in August and September at the private My Quynh safari park in Long An province and the Vuon Xoai zoo in Dong Nai, near the capital Ho Chi Minh City, the official Vietnam News Agency (VNA) reported on Wednesday.

Education for Nature Vietnam, an NGO that focuses on wildlife conservation, said there were a total of 385 tigers living in captivity in Vietnam at the end of 2023.

About 310 are kept at 16 privately owned farms and zoos, while the rest are in state-owned facilities.

The bad news bears:

Black bear with three cubs breaking into Colorado home

Residents of the home were startled by a loud crash at about 8.30pm Thursday night and saw the bears coming in through the sliding door which had been left ajar.

The bear charged and swiped at the man, injured the man’s head, neck, arms, shoulder, abdomen and calf before he and the other residents escaped to a bedroom and locked themselves in.

State wildlife managers found the four bears in trees near the man’s house and killed them, a standard practice to stop problem bears that associate people with food.

Daly recommends not attacking a bear once a person is face-to-face with it. Instead, he said people should slowly turn and back away from any wildlife they might confront. He also stressed that black bears are not dangerous, and it’s rare for a bear to attack someone.

Koá lạ: curiosity kills the koala

Curious koala at Sydney train station

The marsupial was caught on video crawling beneath a fence on to a platform at Casula train station, in the city’s south-west, shortly after 4am on Friday.

South-west Sydney is home to a large koala population, but they face mounting threats from urban development.

Vehicle strikes have increased in the region in recent years as new roads increasingly divide their natural habitat and force the animals into harm’s way.

The NSW government has invested $600,000 into the region as part of its koala strategy, appointing a dedicated koala officer, restoring habitats and tracking the animals to avoid vehicular deaths.

Brown bear in UK-first brain surgery

A specialist wildlife veterinary surgeon, Romain Pizzi, carried out the operation, which aimed to drain fluid from the bear’s brain, at Wildwood Trust, a wildlife park near Canterbury in Kent.

It was the first time a procedure of this kind has been carried out in the UK. Pizzi previously became the first surgeon to perform a similar operation on a black bear in Asia.
The conservation charity is fundraising for Boki’s surgery and immediate aftercare costs, which is expected to be about £20,000.

A red-lipped batfish

It has a stripe, it has spots. “After the red-lipped batfish fully matures, its dorsal fin becomes a single spine-like projection that comes out of the top of the head”. This thing is called an “illicium” and, at the top of the illicium is an “esca”, which emits a light. The RLBF can live at 300m below the surface of the ocean.

It looks as though it is just daring you to ask whether it is wearing lipstick. It looks like it applied the lipstick using its fins, ie not very well, uneven, wider than the outline of its lips.
We’ve all been there. We’ve all felt like a badly made-up, odd-limbed, irritable floor-dwelling mess.

Top dog: barking at the sun

Dog spotted on top of ancient pyramid

The adventurers quickly grabbed their phones and zoomed in to the top of Khafre, the second tallest pyramid — which is off-limits to humans — only to find a dog seemingly chasing some birds at the summit of the 448-foot-tall (136-meter) structure.

“If he got himself up, he can get himself down unless he found some secret portal that helped him teleport to the top of the pyramids,” he joked.

The next day, curious to see if the dog was still there, they flew over the pyramid again, with no luck. However, a fellow adventurer shot a video of what appeared to be the same dog safely making its way down the pyramid.

Cockatoo living for weeks inside Sydney supermarket

The bird had been stuck inside the Coles supermarket in Campbelltown for almost a month, according to the Sydney Metropolitan Wildlife Services.

Mickey looked “physically fine” and was not hungry because he was eating “really well” in the supermarket.

Members of the Sydney Metropolitan Wildlife Services on Monday night attempted to lure the bird outside – although they were unsuccessful and described it as a “nightmare”.

“The poor bird hasn’t had any dark for over four weeks and has been living on brioche,” the rescue group stated on social media.

“Two traps left but with so much food in the store, who knows if that will work.”
