Subject: Hippos are Vegetarian
Date: Wed, 07 Oct 2009 14:08:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Xns9C9D99B7A4AF3zzappergmailcom@80.91.229.13> (raw)
A dwarf nicknamed Od has died in a circus accident in northern Thailand.
According to the Pattaya Mail, he "bounced sideways from a trampoline and was
swallowed by a yawning hippopotamus which was waiting to appear in the next
act. Vets on the scene said Hilda the Hippo had a gag reflex that
automatically caused her to swallow." The vet said it was the first time the
hefty vegetarian had ever eaten a circus performer. "Unfortunately, the
1,000-plus spectators continued to applaud widely until common-sense dictated
that there had been a tragic mistake". (Melbourne Herald Sun - July 16th,
1999)
