The notification of the death of animals is not that common. The death of Totilas rocked the equestrian world to the core Totilas was considered royalty.

Most modern adhesives are synthetic polymers there are a small number of applications such as certain glues for restoring furniture where rendered animal products are still used but most things that are commercially available to the general public are synthetic. Now if you had used a tin of cat food.....

I've just left The Queen off my Inverse entry only 5 minutes ago. Sure I did it because it was a low probability high impact event, but now this? *

 

 

*I'm in no way a fatalistic person, I leave that to those better qualified such as @Gooseberry Crumble, but well one never knows.

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.

MPs effort to protect hedgehogs is being headed up by Chris Grayling. Which, sadly, probably means they’ll be extinct by the end of the month.

If Grayling became an undertaker, people would stop dying.

A female polar bear at the Detroit Zoo was killed by the Zoo’s adult male bear on Monday, February 8, 2021. 20-year-old Anana died when 16-year-old male Nuka was attempting to breed her

 

[Boy, does Sir Creep know the feeling]
 

According to Detroit Zoological Society Chief Life Sciences Officer, the two bears had lived together without incident in 2020. “This was completely unexpected and the Detroit Zoo staff is devastated by the loss of Anana in this sudden and tragic event”.

The Detroit Zoo has not experienced the killing of one animal by another animal in decades; the last occurrence was also with polar bears in 1988.

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.”
