Siêu lợn chắc hông cần laptop, xài tablet với smartphone cho nó gọn.

Hàng rào cũng hông cản được siêu lợn, phải pháo kích cả khu rừng cả ngày cả đêm như Israel mới diệt được hết siêu lợn. Lợn thường chết oan gáng chiệu.

Flood nó đi. Thảy smartphone, tablet gì đó vào hầm dụ nó ra, hoặc xịt nước biển vào ướp muối chuẩn bị món thịt nguội thì khỏi pháo kích.

Philippines' elephant Mali dies after decades alone

An elephant that was kept alone in a cage for more than four decades has died. Mali, a popular attraction at Manila Zoo, was at the center of a global campaign to relocate her.


The pachyderm's plight attracted the attention of animal rights groups and a host of celebrities


Zoo officials in the Philippine capital, Manila, on Wednesday announced that an elephant that lived a solitary existence in a cage for several decades had died.
While Mali was a popular attraction at the city's zoo, she was also at the center of a global campaign to be relocated to join other members of her species.

What the officials said

The animal's death was announced at a news conference by Manila City Mayor Honey Lacuna.

"Mali was our prized possession and was the star attraction here at the Manila Zoo," Lacuna said, recalling that her parents had taken her to the zoo to see the elephant. "It saddens me because she was part of our lives."

Zoo veterinarian Heinrich Domingo told reporters that an autopsy had found that Mali had pancreatic cancer and rejected accusations she had been neglected. "We were her family," he said.

What others said about Mali's treatment

Meanwhile, the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) group condemned authorities for keeping Mali alone for so long, given that elephants are known to be social creatures that live in herds in the wild.

"Because of indifference and greed, Mali the elephant died the same way she had lived for nearly 50 years: alone in a concrete pen at the Manila Zoo," PETA said in a statement.

"The Manila Zoo and the city of Manila sentenced Mali to decades of solitary confinement, which is torturous for female elephants, who naturally would spend their lives among their mothers and sisters, protecting one another and raising each other's calves," PETA said.
The group also accused the zoo and the Philippines government of ignoring Mali's "clearly painful foot problems."

Celebrities including prominent animal behavior expert Jane Goodall and music legend Paul McCartney had joined PETA's campaign to call for Mali to be moved to a sanctuary, where she could have enjoyed the company of other elephants.
Some social media users expressed sadness over Mali's death but also hit out at the zoo and city officials for her treatment.
"No more small enclosure for you. Run free Mali," said one Facebook user, with another commenting that "they killed her long before her physical death."
Mali was presented as a gift from Sri Lanka in 1977 to then Filipino first lady Imelda Marcos, the wife of dictator Ferdinand Marcos and mother of current President Bongbong Marcos.
The elephant was only three years old when she arrived in Manila.
A similar outcry surrounded the treatment of another elephant, Kaavan, who was moved from Islamabad zoo to a sanctuary in Cambodia in 2020 after a campaign spearheaded by the US singer Cher.

Missing cat Lucky returns home after being lost for a year

Lucky, a 3-year-old cat that went missing a year ago, was found some 60 kilometers from home. She was identified by a chip registered with an animal protection group that organizes missing pet hotlines.


Lucky spent a few hours inspecting police headquarters in Garbsen after being found far from home

Lucky, a 3-year-old female tabby cat that went missing a year ago, has been returned to her home in north-central Germany after showing up in a village some 60 kilometers (37 miles) away on Tuesday night.

The cat's owner reported its disappearance from her home in the village of Wallensen outside Hanover in November 2022. Searches of the area by the 52-year-old and her children, however, were unsuccessful.

On Tuesday night, a 39-year-old woman in the village of Garbsen noticed the feline as it sat on her porch looking to come inside.

The woman quickly distributed a photo of the cat in a neighborhood group chat. One group member, a local police officer, stopped by while on patrol to scan the animal's chip implant.

Upon scanning the chip, the officer saw that the cat had been registered as missing.

Police then contacted TASSO e.V., an animal protection organization that, among other things, maintains an active national registry of missing animals. TASSO, in turn, contacted the owner to give her the happy news.Garbsen Police Chief Christoph Ahlborn said the woman arrived at police headquarters late Tuesday night to pick up her much-missed pet.

Pandas are the latest victims of tensions between the U.S. and China

Triệu hồi đại sứ: dipandatic crisis

Edinburgh zoo’s pandas to return to China
https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...eturn-to-china

Greenwood, an events manager, 52, travelled from Cambridge on Wednesday to watch Tian Tian and her partner, Yang Guang, grazing on bamboo, sleeping and exercising.

The pandas’ residency in Edinburgh will come to an end very quietly in a few days. They will soon be flown home without fanfare, leaving behind a continuing dispute about the purpose of zoos and the ethics of China’s panda diplomacy.

Bob Elliot, director of the Scottish animal welfare charity OneKind, agreed. “Wild animals belong in the wild and zoological collections are a sad hangover from the 1960s,” he said. “The vast number are held in captivity for entertainment and financial gain. It’s time to concentrate efforts and resources on conserving habitats and the species surviving in them.

”The zoo spent roughly £13.7m on the pair. It paid China a $1m (£791,000) annual fee for first 10 years and $500,000 for the final two; £3m went on building an expansive new enclosure; there were medical costs, a constant diet of homegrown bamboo that cost £2.4m; at least £1.2m on keepers’ wages, and more on insurance.

Lên xe Tian Tian đi chưa bao giờ buồn thế
Trời mùa đông Scotland suốt đời làm chia ly

Không còn gì xa hơn một nửa vòng trái đất
Tuyết rơi mỏng manh buồn, Edinburgh đèn vàng
Người đi xem muốn khóc, nói chi cũng muộn màng

tyre-slashing dog

As the plot thickened, police mounted surveillance cameras and last week found the suspect – a dog named Billy.

Billy, who lives close to where the cars were parked, was captured on camera biting into the tyres of several cars.

Vets said that Billy’s behaviour could be explained by a severe case of gingivitis, which made him gnaw at the tyres in order to relieve the pain.

Police are carrying out more checks before officially sanctioning Billy, whose owner will reportedly be responsible for compensating the car owners.

cats are eating 2,000 species
https://www.theguardian.com/environm...tion-study-aoe

Birds, mammals, insects, and reptiles are all on the menu, 17% of which are of conservation concern according to the research, which is the first to quantify their diet on a global scale.

In total, cats eat 981 species of bird, 463 reptiles and 431 mammals – comprising about 90% of species consumed. They were also found to feed on 119 species of insects and 57 amphibians.

Their impact on wildlife has spurred fierce debate in New Zealand, where one politician is campaigning to eradicate them completely, and controversy has erupted over competitions encouraging children to shoot feral cats.

Japan says 1,200 tonnes of fish washing ashore
https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...ore-is-unknown

Local fishers scrambled to collect the fish, fearing their carcasses would lower the oxygen content of the water as they decompose and damage the marine environment.

Experts have speculated that the migratory fish in both areas had become stranded after being chased to the point of exhaustion by amberjack and other predatory fish. Mass mortality events can also occur when there are sudden drops in the water temperature, causing the fish to go into shock, they added.

Japanese government officials have blasted a report in the British newspaper the Daily Mail that appeared to link the phenomenon to the release of treated water from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.

Tìm ra “ma cà rồng”:

new species of hedgehogs in south-east Asia
https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...outh-east-asia

Soft-furred hedgehogs are small mammals that belong to the hedgehog family, which have a long, pointy snout, and are furry, rather than spiny. Scientists have likened their appearance to a mixture of a mouse and a shrew with a short tail.

They are active both during the day and night, and are believed to eat insects and other invertebrates as well as fruits.

One of the new species, which had particularly long fangs, was named H. macarong, after a Vietnamese word for vampire (Ma cà rồng). It has dark brown fur, is about 14cm long and is endemic to southern Vietnam.
