OLL LEWIS: Yesterday's News Today

On this day in 1858 Darwin received a paper from Wallace that came to the same conclusions Darwin would later publish as his theory of natural selection. There is still some controversy over how much of the theory that Darwin is always credited for was actually thought up by Darwin himself, although it could be argued that all science is a collaborative effort no matter who the media and chattering classes of the time decide to credit discoveries to.

And now, the news:

Seal rescued by RSPCA after swimming into Wylfa power station

Abergele dead swan mystery baffles RSPCA

Another big cat is spotted in the area

Big cat visits Weston backyard

New fears over Sussex big cat killings

9-year-old girl who wrestles alligators

Turtle films itself with lost camera

RSPCA announces decision to suspend use of bolt guns

US Man Bitten To Death By His Pet Dogs

World Cup parrot turns air blue

Hopefully it’ll not make the complaints department ‘as sick as a parrot’.
