Alligator Denied Entry to Baseball Game PLUS Giant Tumbleweeds take over highways

0:03 Caloroga Shark media. Good news if you're a giant tumbleweed, I am jutting back with five good stories. A giant tumbleweed the size of a Volkswagen Beetle spotted hurling down the highway in California, captured on video shared on Twitter. The poster of the video offered no information about the bouncing plant carcass, other to say it was the mother of all tumbleweeds that reminded the user of tumble geddon. Back in twenty twenty, a swarm of tumbleweeds took over a stretch of Washington State Highway that piled up to thirty feet high in some blazes.

0:43 Think about that. Cars and trucks were trapped for hours. Palaeontologists have reported the discovery of a remarkable fossil that's a juvenile tyrannosaur called Gorgosaurus labratus. They found the partially digested drumsticks of two bird like dinosaurs were at stomach once was extraordinary. Specimen opens a vivid window into the behavior, development, and diet of a predator that lives seventy five million years ago. The tyrannosaur Gogosaurus is a slightly smaller cousin of the most famous Tyrannosaurus wrecks. The juvenile is probably between five and seven years old and weighed about seven hundred and forty pounds thirteen percent the size of a fully grown adult. Would have measured about fifteen feet from nose to tail and stood about as tall as an average human adult.

1:23 Paleontologists say the find is exceptional for a few reasons. One, the bones were articulated and found in place, rather than jumbled up for scientists piece together the animals a juvenile, providing a critical window into the time before Grogosaurus bulked up into a bone crushing apex predator. But most importantly, these stomach contents were intact, allowing scientists to see that before's death that had recently dined on two separate occasions. Good news, Researchers at the Peter McCallum Cancer Center in Australia have found that when a particular drug is combined with another cancer treatment, sixty two percent of patients with tumors caused by a mutation in thes gene experienced a positive outcome. This shows promise for people suffering from a specific form of bowel cancer. One of the doctors says, we're very hopeful this combination of drugs will translate into better outcomes for our correctal cancer patients. Good news if you're a chicken trying to cross the road by way, there was a segue shown. The Biden administration announced that one hundred and ten million dollars will be awarded to improve wildlife road crossings across the US and hopes of reducing deadly crashes involving animals and cars. When I was in Australia, I saw a lot of these things. They're pretty cool. Transportation Secretary Pete Budajetge said a statement.

2:32 Every year, too many Americans are injured or killed and crashes involving cars in wildlife. The projects were funding today and seventeen states will reduce collisions between drivers and wildlife and save American lives. In Arizona, the Kelly Canyon Wildlife Overpass Project will construct nearly seventeen miles of fencing and other safety measures long Interstate seventeen. Wyoming's going to get twenty four million to build overpasses, underpasses, and fencing along a rural highway. In the states Colorado, California, and Pennsylvania will also get some funds. Look, man, you can't bring your alligator to the Phillies game. Wally is a six foot long, fifty five pound alligator. He was spotted wearing a harness and leash. He was with us human outside Citizens Bank Park. The human said, we weren't there to go to the ball game. We were there to meet the players. That's what we were there for, and I was invited. I didn't just show up. Wally's not just any alligator. Wally has more than one hundred and fourteen thousand followers on TikTok and another twenty seven thousand on Instagram. He's gone viral before in posts splashing around the fountain at Philadelphia's famous Love Park. He's posted for photos at city Hall with the Mayor of York, and visited seniors at a local retirement home. Wow, is that a good idea? Apparently, the human explained one of Wally's fans is also a big Phillies fan.

3:45 It happens to be friendly with some of the players and their wives. The team invited the human and Wally to Philadelphia, but by the time they got to the stadium, the players were already preparing for the game. Yeah, you gotta plan this, dude. Since they were already there, his friend figures should buy them tickets to watch, but she didn't ask about the rules for emotional support animals. The human said. We were standing in line waiting, and they said I can't take Wally because they're only allowing service animals. And I said, okay, I respect what your rules are. There was no arguing there's nothing Citizens Bank Parks policy prohibits all animals other than guide dog service animals or service animals and training. But what if I have an emotional support alligator? The human says he wouldn't have shown up with Wally unannounced. I don't go anywhere while he's not invited. They can invite it to lots of places, like restaurants and malls. The humans said, they're not even a baseball fan. I don't watch baseball. That's your five good news stories for today. If you enjoy the program, tell a friend about it.
