Foxes have âbegun to dig burrowsâ in soil of rooftop garden at the as yet unopened Kingâs Cross headquarters
All this talk of AI taking over, it sounds like we have to watch out for the cockies tooâŚ
Most Sydneysiders arenât smart enough to figure that out.
FIFY
So the Cockatoos figured it out themselves. Journalism is just rubbish these days.
Certainly wouldnât want to rely on a brit working it out.
Nor would I.
Not sure why the BBC think that itâs called âOceansâ, but I recall posting after seeing Ocean at the cinema recently that it should be compulsory viewing for everyone.
Well, itâs now on Disney+ for those who have access and it should be top of your watch list.
FIFY
Scientists recently radiocarbon dated the eye proteins of 28 Greenland sharks and one female was estimated to be 400 years old. This means she has been wandering the oceans since the 1620s! This makes the Greenland shark the longest-living vertebrate known on Earth.
Fuck me. Does every thread have to devolve that shit. Get a room and leave everyone else out of it.
OK, Iâve deleted a few posts here with the same old, tiresome inside jokes. Do we have to repeat ourselves?
I saw this article in the Guardian about foxes living on the roof garden of a new office block in London:
Foxes have âbegun to dig burrowsâ in soil of rooftop garden at the as yet unopened Kingâs Cross headquarters
I have a few issues with this article, not least of which is that describe them as pests, and yet further down say that they are feeding off rats which are in turn feeding of human detritus. Iâd really question who is the invasive species here.
How did the foxes get there?
How did the foxes get there?
Iâm not sure how they got on top of that particular building, but urban foxes are quite common. They will often dig dens around bushes or under sheds and the like. Iâm assuming that there is some way up there, probably stairwells or something.
The twin-peaked Lewotobi Laki-Laki volcano erupted on Tuesday creating a vast plume.
In a remarkable and heart-touching incident in Ethiopia, a 12-year-old girl was kidnapped by men who planned to force her into marriage. She had been missing for nearly a week, and her family feared the worst. But when the police finally located her, they were stunned to find an extraordinary scene, three wild lions were standing guard over the frightened girl.
The lions had not harmed her; instead, they had chased off her captors and remained by her side, protecting her until help arrived. Once the police reached the location, the lions calmly walked away, disappearing into the wilderness. This unbelievable act of protection left both authorities and locals astonished.
Experts speculate that the girlâs cries might have sounded like a lion cub in distress, prompting the lions to respond with empathy. Regardless of the reason, the incident has sparked widespread awe and admiration, showcasing a rare moment of compassion from nature itself.
The story has since become a powerful symbol of how wild creatures can sometimes show more humanity than humans themselves. It serves as a reminder of the mysteries and wonders of the animal kingdom, and how even in the wildest places, unexpected guardians can emerge when hope seems lost.
I wonder if she had been rolling in the lions piss?
Also perhaps not afraid of the lions being more afraid of the 3 abductors?
Thought this was an ai story tbh , but apparently the guardian reported it in 2005.
