Good news, MORE Mosquitos! Wait, what?

0:03 Calarocus Shark Media. Hi there, I'm Johnny mag with five good news stories. Hey, good news, there are more mosquitoes, John did you say more mosquitoes? Has that good news? Yes, there are more mosquitos, and it's good news. Scientists have been dropping mosquitoes from the skies of Hawaii. Now, why would you do that? Nobody likes mosquitoes. Well, the scientists know what they're doing. The mosquitoes being dropped into Hawaii's forest by drone. These are lab reared, non biting mosquitoes. Each of these mosquitoes has been infected with a naturally occurring bacterium that prevents the mosquito from producing offspring. Okay, that's good and that's it. That's the entire plan. So the female mosquitoes are hooking up and they're like, cool, We're gonna make some more mosquitoes, except you guys aren't.

Leave the UK, go to the Canary Islands past the Cape of Good Hope, sail to Australia across the Pacific to Uruguay, Antigua, New York, and then at home by spring of next year. He has circumnavigated before. In twenty nineteen, did it with a gyrocopter that took six months and one hundred and twenty two separate flights. Before that, he circumnavigated the globe on a bicycle. This is his second attempt via boat. There was a malfunction in twenty twenty four that ended his first attempt. He plans to help kill time by live streaming videos and doing talks to classes around the world.

He received donations from community members, including the UFC fighter Montel Jackson, and explains Montale saw me at Walmart getting the bikes just get me five thousand dollars right there on the spot, and told me he liked what I was doing. Oh, poor kitten, a six week old kitten was brought to the vet. The kitten's head had been stuck in a brick. Yogi was brought in by his family.

2:27 He had somehow gotten his head stuck in a brick overnight. The vet sedated Yogi, the kitten, lubricated his head, got the brick off the head. The kitten was not injured.

The public information officer for the Washington State Patrol said it was an interesting morning. The bison were safely wrangled returned to their owner's property.
