The Mystery of the 11 Pigs

00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:11.599
Kalaroga Shark Media. Hi there,
Johnny Mack with five good news stories.

2
00:00:11.640 --> 00:00:16.000
This first one bittersweet, but more
good than bad. Three elephants were returned

3
00:00:16.039 --> 00:00:19.960
to the wild. They had been
orphaned as babies. They were rewilded after

4
00:00:20.120 --> 00:00:24.920
years in an innovative Kenyan sanctuary.
When rangers first spotted one of the one

5
00:00:24.960 --> 00:00:29.120
month old elephants, she was roaming
around the Samburu region in northern Kenya.

6
00:00:29.160 --> 00:00:32.200
She seemed distressed and alone. They
couldn't find her mother, but they did

7
00:00:32.200 --> 00:00:36.240
find a carcass. They named that
elephant, Capi. Capi struck up a

8
00:00:36.240 --> 00:00:40.439
close friendship with another elephant, calf
Lemo Rigo, who had been separated from

9
00:00:40.520 --> 00:00:44.679
his mother just two months old.
Three more orphan or abandoned elephants were brought

10
00:00:44.679 --> 00:00:48.039
to the refuge over the following two
years. They formed or herd. Capi

11
00:00:48.280 --> 00:00:52.520
became their trusted matriarch. Now,
after six years, Capi and twelve other

12
00:00:52.560 --> 00:00:58.119
elephants were released into the wild.
The refuges communications manager said elephants of strong

13
00:00:58.119 --> 00:01:00.880
cultural imprints in the Samburu community,
so the community leaders wanted a safe home

14
00:01:00.920 --> 00:01:03.640
for the orphans. Here, one
of the keepers said, we are their

15
00:01:03.680 --> 00:01:07.719
moms. And dads. The aim
is to have them live strong and independent

16
00:01:07.799 --> 00:01:11.000
lives so they can go back to
their natural homes. Meanwhile, a six

17
00:01:11.159 --> 00:01:17.040
legged dog who was abandoned outside a
shop has her new home. Ariel was

18
00:01:17.120 --> 00:01:21.239
eleven weeks old. Somebody left her
outside a store. The cocker spaniel has

19
00:01:21.400 --> 00:01:25.319
six legs. Allie runs a surf
school. He said, we had a

20
00:01:25.359 --> 00:01:29.120
sixteen year old dog that we found
thirteen years ago wandering down Freshwater West Beach

21
00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:32.680
or local beach, and unfortunately he
just suddenly passed away overnight. We thought

22
00:01:32.760 --> 00:01:34.319
we're not going to get another dog
because it's so upsetting, and then we

23
00:01:34.359 --> 00:01:38.239
realized that her home fell empty with
that one, and we applied to Green

24
00:01:38.239 --> 00:01:42.519
Acres for a dog. Green Acres
got back. They were introduced to Ariel.

25
00:01:42.560 --> 00:01:46.799
We obviously found out about her whole
story. We were overjoyed to welcome

26
00:01:46.840 --> 00:01:49.519
her into our family. She joins
us everywhere we go. She can actually

27
00:01:49.519 --> 00:01:52.799
walk very well. She doesn't need
little bricks now and then, but if

28
00:01:52.799 --> 00:01:53.840
we were going a walk, I
could put her in a bag. I

29
00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:57.680
give her a lot of stops.
She's swimming in the sea, she's been

30
00:01:57.680 --> 00:02:00.640
paddle boarding, surfing, and it's
just great with kids, family. She's

31
00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:05.000
a very gentle soul. She likes
sitting and watching. I can't encourage you

32
00:02:05.120 --> 00:02:07.840
enough. Get a shelter animal.
I just had a generational change in my

33
00:02:07.960 --> 00:02:12.520
house. I lost an old friend, and a day and a half later,

34
00:02:12.639 --> 00:02:15.240
my wife went off to the shelter
and came back with our new friend.

35
00:02:15.960 --> 00:02:17.000
He's a year old, and he
was a shelter dog, and now

36
00:02:17.000 --> 00:02:21.039
he's got a home and we're all
happy. Here he is. He just

37
00:02:21.080 --> 00:02:23.080
walked in. I was just talking
about you. Hi. By the way,

38
00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:27.080
if you listen to both this and
Daily Company, sometimes I'll mention my

39
00:02:27.159 --> 00:02:30.520
older dog that walks into the studio. That's actually not the dog that passed

40
00:02:30.560 --> 00:02:35.520
away. The younger dog was fourteen. My old girl's sixteen and a half.

41
00:02:35.560 --> 00:02:37.879
She's still walking around. But here's
my new friend here. Okay,

42
00:02:37.879 --> 00:02:40.080
I got to record my show,
right, buddy. Theodore Roosevelt's pocket watch

43
00:02:40.159 --> 00:02:44.759
was stolen in nineteen eighty seven,
and it's finally back home. It was

44
00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:47.280
given to him by his sister and
her husband in eighteen ninety eight, that

45
00:02:47.400 --> 00:02:53.560
was before he became president. But
nineteen eighty seven, someone stole it from

46
00:02:53.599 --> 00:02:57.879
an unlocked case at the Theodore Roosevelt
inaugural National Historic Site in Buffalo, New

47
00:02:57.960 --> 00:03:00.400
York, where it was on loan
jerks. Thirty six years later, it

48
00:03:00.439 --> 00:03:05.080
turned up at a Florida auction house. It was seized by federal agents.

49
00:03:05.080 --> 00:03:08.280
Good job, federal agents. It
has now been returned to public display at

50
00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:14.240
Sagamore Hill at the National Park Service. Tweed Roosevelt, presumably a relative,

51
00:03:14.319 --> 00:03:16.360
said this was feel good news for
me. Kind of felt almost like a

52
00:03:16.360 --> 00:03:20.439
piece of tr spirit being returned to
Sagamore Hill, like a little bit of

53
00:03:20.520 --> 00:03:23.240
him. It was coming back,
and so I felt that was really cool.

54
00:03:23.360 --> 00:03:25.319
Well, good news. If you're
in Virginia, you don't have to

55
00:03:25.319 --> 00:03:30.319
worry about those escaped donkeys. The
Virginia State Police said on social media a

56
00:03:30.479 --> 00:03:36.240
duo of donkeys were rounded up by
authorities after escaping their home and wandering onto

57
00:03:36.240 --> 00:03:39.960
a road. The police emphasized the
teamwork that went into capturing the donkeys,

58
00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:44.840
saying, this teamwork shows the importance
of having a strong support network. That's

59
00:03:44.919 --> 00:03:49.039
right. Meanwhile, in San Diego, those authorities are trying to figure out

60
00:03:49.280 --> 00:03:52.960
where did the eleven pigs come from. Eleven pigs were found wandering in the

61
00:03:52.960 --> 00:03:59.000
morning off Woods Drive. County Animal
Services Lieutenant Italia Padilla said, Mamaha or

62
00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:01.240
babies in a random Belli pig.
We're all in a gated driveway area that

63
00:04:01.319 --> 00:04:05.039
led up to two properties. Padilla
said the pigs were lured into a trailer

64
00:04:05.439 --> 00:04:10.639
with some food. She tells us
they were very food motivated. The mom

65
00:04:10.719 --> 00:04:15.120
hog liked her ear scratched, and
she was fairly affectionate. Nobody has reported

66
00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:17.759
missing me eleven pigs. This is
a mystery. I will stay on top

67
00:04:17.800 --> 00:04:20.519
of it. And those are your
five good news stories for today. If

68
00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:24.360
you enjoy the program, tell a
friend about it. They might like it

69
00:04:24.439 --> 00:04:26.720
too. And if you'd like to
get rid of the commercials, I know

70
00:04:26.759 --> 00:04:29.120
there's commercials, and the show's not
all that long, but you know,

71
00:04:29.240 --> 00:04:31.639
rent and mortgage and stuff. But
one way you could support the show go

00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:35.040
