Man raises lion in garden

April 17, 2008

Apparently a Romanian man was discovered to have been raising a lion in his garden. At first his neighbors did not report the man until the roaring became too much to bear.  The story gets more interesting as authorities also discovered two deer, a stag, and two peacocks as well. The man faces up to a year in jail if convicted.

My question is, did he plan on feeding the animals to the lion? Or was he teasing it?

Woman that lives with hundreds of rats and snakes

April 17, 2008

Authorities discovered a woman in Washington that apparently was living with hundreds of rats and four snakes. The woman was reported over a month ago but aparently was reluctant to cooperate with officials. The woman called the rats “her friends” When authorities finally entered the home they found the floor covered with rat shit and soaked in urine. The woman aparently bought a few rats to feed the snakes but they escaped and the situation got out of control fast.

I’m wondering, how is there a house full of rats, with 4 boas and they don’t eat them?
