OLL LEWIS: Yesterday's News Today
http://cryptozoologynews.blogspot.com/
On this day in 1976 the director Fritz Lang died. Lang is most famous for 'Metropolis' but in my opinion another of his early films, 'M' is even better.
And now the news:
Connecticut River monster (via Chad Arment)
Boffin breeds 'world's tiniest frogs'
Canadian Fish Scientist 'Muzzled' by Government
Gary the greedy gourami takes a break from eating ...
Research in 'Westie' Dogs May Hold Answers to Simi...
Cows Clock-In for Monitored Mealtimes
Tuna at serious risk of extinction
Large population of Critically Endangered antelope...
Huge pangolin seizure in China
Pangolin... (wait for it to get up and waddle off as it has a comical gait):
