PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT! Huge Reward For Anyone Who Removes Tyre From Crocodile's Neck

-

A reward is being offered to anyone brave enough to remove a motorcycle stuck around the neck of a 13ft crocodile in Indonesia.

The creature has been struggling around with the tyre since at least 2016 when it was first spotted in the Palu River in Central Sulawesi. 

The endangered Siamese crocodile has survived an earthquake and a tsunami that struck the region in 2018, but the tyre hasn’t budged.

The agency’s chief Hasmuni Hasmar did not specify how much the reward would be but it would come out of his own pocket as the agency is strapped for cash.

Mr Hasmar stressed that he didn’t want to encourage amateurs to risk themselves and only wanted people with a background in wildlife rescue.

Wildlife officials are especially concerned that the tyre – thought to come from a Vespa scooter thrown into the estuary – will strangle the crocodile if it is not removed urgently. 

An agency official said at the time: ‘Its body is getting bigger and the tyre which should be 14 inches, is stifling it.

‘If the tyre is not removed immediately, it will strangle the crocodile because of its growing body.’

 We’ve Reached Peak Wellness. Most of It Is Nonsense. by Brad Stulberg, getpocket.com Here’s what actually works. Wellness isn’t that complicated. Illustrations by Marta Pantaleo. Photo by: Illustrations Marta Pantaleo In Silicon Valley, techies are swooning over tarot-card readers. In New York, you can hook up to a “detox” IV at a lounge. In the Midwest, the Neurocore Brain Performance Center markets brain training for everything from ADHD, anxiety, and depression to migraines, stress, autism-spectrum disorder, athletic performance, memory, and cognition. And online, companies like Goop promote “8 Crystals For Better Energy” and a detox-delivery meal kit, complete with “nutritional supplements, probiotics, detox and beauty tinctures, and beauty and detox teas.” Across the country, everyone is looking for a cure for what ails them, which has led to a booming billion-dollar industry—what I’ve come to call the Wellness Industrial Complex.

It just wasn’t enough.” Teigen wrote that she and Legend had not previously decided on their children’s names until after they were born; still, for some reason, the couple referred to the unborn child as “Jack.” ...
