Seagull Steals Chips From Store!

A seagull in Scotland has developed the habit of stealing chips from a neighborhood shop. The seagull waits until the shopkeeper isn't looking, and then walks into the store and grabs a snack-size bag of cheese Doritos. Once outside, the bag gets ripped open and shared by other birds. The seagulls shoplifting started early this month when he first swooped into the store in Aberdeen, Scotland, and helped himself to a bag of chips. Since then, he's become a regular. He always takes the same type of chips. http://www.indiaonrent.com/view/s/seagull-steals-chips-from-store.html

Fox was living at top of tallest London skyscraper

A fox with a head for heights has been discovered living at the top of a 288m tall skyscraper at London Bridge. The animal, named Romeo by staff, was found 72 storeys off the ground in the UK's tallest skyscraper, the Shard. It's thought he got there by climbing 71 sets of stairs and a ladder and survived for two weeks by eating food left by builders. While the building is still under construction, the fantastic fox will have enjoyed sensational panoramic views of London before he was caught in a special cage. The fearless intruder has now been brought down to earth after being released back on to the streets of Bermondsey. Romeo was given a check-up and feed at Riverside Animal Centre in Wallington before his release. http://newslite.tv/2011/02/25/fox-was-living-at-top-of-talle.html
