0:03 Caloroga Shark Media. Hey there, I'm Johnny Mack with five good news stories. Here's a license plate for you. Okay, you gotta picture of this in your mind. SQZ A five five. That is the license plate. A seventy six year old Florida woman got sqz A five to five. Some people look at it and see the phrase squeeze ass, she told CBS Miami. When I saw that, I went ballistic. I said, how could that pass inspection? I don't think a senior who's almost seventy seven would be driving around to the plate that has that to say. Her first reaction was to demand a replacement, but after showing the plate to family and friends, they encourage her to keep it.

0:44 She said, I'm resigned to it. Maybe it is designed to be on my car. I can handle it. Maybe I'll even get some hawks. In Columbia, a theme park set the record for the biggest piggy bank. It is a ceramic piggy bank. It stands twenty nine feet six point three inches tall, stretches nearly thirty four feet long, and weighs about thirty tons. That makes it the largest piggy bank in the world. And it's not just for show. Visitors can actually drop coins into the slot, with all the donations going to local animal shelters. I like that. You can also walk inside the Hollow Pig, where you'll find an exhibit exploring the history of ceramic piggybanks in the region. The pig's nose has been turned into an observation deck overlooking the surrounding countryside. Natalia is a Guinness World Wreckers adjudicator. Natalia said reviewing a structure of this scale was an absolute privilege. The sheer precision of the claim modeling itself is stunning. At a different theme park, this one in Canada, thirty beluga whales that spent years at the closed theme park are finally on their way to new homes after the US and Canadian governments approved a long awaited rescue plan. They've been stuck at Ontario's Marine Land ever since the park closed. The park said they no longer had the resources to properly care for the animals, and even warned they might have to euthanize them if permission to relocate them wasn't great. Because beluga whales are protected under the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species, Special International permits were required. Twenty eight of the whales, that's a lot of whales, will be relocated to four accredited American aquariums, the Georgia Aquarium, Chicago's Shed Aquarium,

2:17 which is fantastic, and SeaWorld Parks in San Diego and San Antonio. The other two are heading to Spain once the Spanish authorities issue the final permits will keep it in the water. In Maine, a fish that was once on the verge of disappearing from Mainz rivers has made a comeback. More than twenty million river herring were counted during this year's annual migration, the highest number recorded in decades. Conservationists say the recovery is largely the result of removing major dams and restoring access to spawning grounds. Early settlers could reach into the water and simply catch the fish by hand. There were that many of them, but then centuries of dam construction and heavy commercial fishing caused the population to collapse. Efforts to restore the species began in the late night nineties with damn removals, and in London there was a pit bull concert and it turned into a world record attempt when tens of thousands of fans showed up looking like Pitbull. Do you know Pitbull? Here's what you need to know. He's bald and astonishing. Twenty two, one hundred and forty one people put on bald caps to recreate Pitbull's signature look. Many fans also went with aviator sunglasses and leather jackets. The effort officially earned the Guinness World Record for largest gathering of people wearing bald caps.

3:31 Pitbull said to be able to pursue my dream and be on the stage like this represent with all the baldies around the world. This is priceless. There's no way I can say thank you. There are no words I could say what I feel right now. Congratulations to pit Bull and the baldies. And those are your five good news stories for today. I have a good one.
