[0]Can you spot the Kangaroo blending in to his native habitat in the German countryside?
Of course, you generally don't see roos hopping around in Germany.
But a zookeeper was transporting this six month old baby from the Netherlands to the Czech Republic in a van.
He pulled over in a parking lot to feed the kangaroo.
But when other motorists honked their horns, it spooked the baby roo, which bolted to freedom.
It took 12 police officers, 2 hours and one tranquilizer gun to finally recapture him.
During that time, the cops learned how pointless it is to chase a kangaroo.

[0]It's not that unusual to walk out on the front lawn and see a pink flamingo.
But this one was alive!
This is the story of an escaped Flamingo that terrorized Des Moines, Iowa this week (okay, terrorized may be a bit much).

[0]Last Summer, a baby bear captured national headlines when a firefighter rescued him near Lake Tahoe.
But wildlife doctors weren't sure if they could save Little Smokey from the burns he suffered.
Now he's older, better, and ready to return to the wild.

[0]The economy has had an unforeseen affect on the nation's wild mustangs.
The problem is there are too many of the horses to maintain in Oklahoma.
So over the years, wildlife officials have adopted them out.
But now, Americans can't afford to keep wild horses.
So Oklahoma officials were faced with only one option.. euthanizing thousands of mustangs.
That is, until a billionaires wife stepped in.
Here's the story.

[0]The savvy Floridian knows where to take the tourists in the fall to see some manatees.
The sea cows look for some place to stay warm when the water temperature starts dropping.
In Tampa Bay, that place is the TECO Power Plant in Apollo Beach.
The water around the plant is warmed by the utilities operations and make a perfect refuge for the sea-going mammals.
Hundreds of folk show up every year to watch the manatees at their winter "spa."

Kind of makes you wonder what may be lurking in the water near Sequoyah, doesn't it?
