Sir Creep 7,070 Posted January 14, 2021 The United States Naval Academy has announced that goat mascot Bill 33 has died. The fuzzy Angora goat was affectionately known as “Blue Eyes” and would have been 14 years old next week. Bill, the Naval Academy's 35th goat mascot , died following a history of chronic illness. The goat was the team mascot from 2008 to 2015. He stood out not only for his startling eyes, but also for horns that stretched longer than any goat in his herd. Bill 33 played a central role in an Army-Navy prank that had gone too far in 2012. He was kidnapped from his home at Maryland Sunrise Farm in Gambrills. There were other so-called goatnappings. But that one prompted the academy to keep the mascot’s location secret to the public. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

torbrexbones 717 Posted February 17, 2021 Thousands Of Stunned Sea Turtles Rescued From Texas Storm. The turtles have been loaded into the back of a Subaru. They’ve been laid out in row after row on the deck of a ship. And the stunned creatures have been arrayed by the thousands in buildings without power amid the powerful winter storm that has blasted Texas with frigid temperatures this week. Wildlife groups and volunteers have pulled thousands of threatened sea turtles from the waters off the Texas coast in recent days amid the paralyzing storm. Dramatic photos show turtles hauled from frigid waters, suffering from what’s known as cold-stunning. The phenomenon happens when a sea turtle faces long exposure to cold water temperatures, often below 50 degrees. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration noted that cold-stunned turtles “become lethargic and are eventually unable to swim causing them to float at the surface.” Dramatic Photos Show Thousands Of Stunned Sea Turtles Rescued From Texas Storm (yahoo.com) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
