0:03 Caloroga Shark Media. Why the Air of Johnny Mack? Five good news stories. A pet owner learned that her cat had adopted a rabbit. Yeah. Jen noticed that her born cat was a nursing her litter of kittens, and there was an extra kitten. Except it wasn't a kitten, it was a baby bunny. Jen posted this TikTok and wrote Nature writes a better story than Disney. But she did point out let's pause the cuteness for a moment of education. If you find a wild animal, its best bet for survival is for you to leave it be. Fawns are left alone all day so predators aren't attracted to mama's scent. Mama rabbits do the same thing, often feeding them twice a day to keep predators away from the nest. At age nine, Christy was diagnosed with Stargart disease, a genetic condition that affects the central portion of the retina and leads to gradual vision loss. Christy's now twenty eight and setting out to climb Mount Kilimanjaro. She said, I put a lot of mental energy and trying to hide it, but it became harder and harder to hide The hard part of degenerative eye disease is you don't wake up one day and realize, oh, I should use my cane now for the rest of my life. She was invited and with some friends to hike up Mount Kilmanjaro, and she explains, my immediate gut reaction was no. The friend was telling us more about the trip. He gave all these details, and that it dawned on us this is going to be a really once in a lifetime opportunity.
1:21 The plan was for eleven blind climbers, each accompanied by one sided individual, to hike to the near twenty thousand feet peak of Mount kilman Joro. The stats on that about thirty thousand people attempt the hike each year, with a sixty six percent success rate. For her preps, she had to focus on heavy cardio training, saying, I'm still working out how to use my hiking polls to sort of feel the ground, and I think guiding looks really different going up hill versus downhill for me with all the different lighting conditions on the trail. When I was younger, I really didn't know what my disease was going to lead to in my life. I didn't know what my life was going to amount to I'm a twenty eight year old woman who lost her eyesight, and yet I get to live independently with some of my best friend friends. Now these friends get to go out in all kinds of ventures with me, from backpacking the Grand Canyon to running the Boston Marathon and now Kilimanjaro. Meanwhile, in Denver, the Denver Botanic Gardens hosted a competition to see who could stack the most weight on a water lily pad before the pad sank. More than thirty zoos in gardens in nine countries around the world took part. The Missouri Botanic Gardens posted a video on Instagram of their largest lily floating upright under one hundred and eighty two pounds of weight, but Florida's Bock Tower Gardens beat that with one hundred and eighty three pounds. Third place went to the Huntsville Botanical Garden in Alabama, just one hundred and seventy six pounds. Officer Stephen Harris was asked by the Pittsburgh Local News why he would spend one hundred and thirteen dollars of his own money to solve a stranger's problem.
2:51 Officer Harris said, we're supposed to be good men. So Harris got a call, Hey, come to the Greyhound bus depot in Pittsburgh. There's a man being unruly. Iras said he was just a male who was deaf and didn't speak English read English. So it turned out he needed help to get back on a bus to New York and eventually Montreal. They called in a translator police line and it turned out the man had stepped off the bus to stretch his legs. Didn't hear the call from the driver's time to go and watch as the bus took off for New York with his luggage and his cash still on board. Harris used his own money on his bank card to buy an Amtrak ticket to New York. And Heines has settled the debate should he keep your ketchup in the fridge or in the cupboard? The debate does keeping in the fridge keep it fresh or does it make it too cold? I'm on team fridge. Let's see what Hines has to say. Heines says, the best place to keep your ketchup to ensure it tastes best is you gotta know, right well, Olivia Lennon at Heines Tomato confirms there was only ever one correct answer, and we're happy to share with you. Heines's Tomato Ketchup lovers should be kept boy. I'm tempted to make a tune back for next episode, but that would be jerky. The best way to maintain the delicious tanky taste of our Hinds Tomato Ketchup is fridge, she says. Although we're aware many Hinds Tomato Ketchup fans have been storing their ketchup in the cupboard, we do recommend refrigeration after opening. And those are your five good news stories for today. Enjoy your French fries, have a great day.
