Animal Magic 1

Behemoth

The first part of the post has a single picture .....

.... But what a picture.

This behemoth is a fifty year old Great White Shark called Deep Blue. She is 20 foot long and the width of an elephant. She is the largest Great White Shark ever filmed and released.

Loyal Pooches

A Pomeranian dog named Sandy, darted back into a blazing house in Little Hadham, Herts, UK to rescue its friend, a blind Chihuahua called Tina. Fire crews followed Sandy in, and found them sitting side by side 'they were only going to come out together' reported one of the firemen.

Stupid Cats

In bad news for cat lovers, scientists at Vanderbilt University have 'proved' that dogs are smarter .... canines have nearly twice as many brain cells as cats in an area of the brain used for complex activities such as thinking and planning. Dogs have 530million neurons in the cerebral cortex while cats have only 250million (humans have 16billion in that brain region).

Surprised Snake 

A beach in Ramsgate, Kent, England, particularly in the middle of December is not the natural habitat for very much, so it was a great surprise for a dog owner searching for their lost bulldog, when they stumbled across a four foot Kingsnake.

Its assumed that it had recently been abandoned to die there, although it was still in its vivarium. A Kingsnake bite is not poisonous to humans, because they lack venom. But its still a nasty suck

Pissed Off

An elephant trampled an 80 year old woman to death, as she had a pee in a forest in Tamil Nadu in southern India.

Camel Care

The worlds first veterinary hospital dedicated to the treatment of camels has opened in Dubai. Costing £8 million it has operating theatres and state-of-the-art medical equipment.

Sensitive Sheep

A sheep shearer at Broken Hill, New South Wales was threatened with a complaint by some animal rights nut cases. His crime?

He swore at some sheep. This upset the group catchily called The people for Ethical Treatment of Animals, who submitted a video of the worker using a swear word at the sheep to the RSPCA, who said it wasn't admissible. The sheep shearer's boss later said "The sheep didn't even look offended to me after they had been shorn."
