I guess someone figured it was too much of a job to care for more than 200 reptiles and decided to abandon them until animal enforcement officials were alerted and searched the home. Among those recovered were an Albino rosy boa snake and an illegal, venomous coral snake. Just be glad you weren’t the person asked to house-sit.
In celebration of the Year of the Rat, a restaurant in Taiwan has adjusted their menu to include…yes…rat dishes. Supposedly “the meat is tender and better than chicken.” But are you willing to put that to the test?
Squeak.
Lastly, an elderly couple were threatened by seven men on Monday, who tried to break into the couple’s home, shouting death threats. The men were driven off by the homeowners’ son, who shot one of the intruders in the foot. Four of the men are now being held on bail…but that’s not the fun part. The mother of the wounded man called up the elderly couple and complained, saying she didn’t appreciate her boy getting shot. Let’s talk priorities, shall we?
That’s it for this weekend.
I see that smile.
