CANBERRA, Feb 2 (Reuters Life!) - Britain's top female paraglider has cheated death after being attacked by a pair of "screeching" wild eagles while competition flying in Australia.

Nicky Moss, 38, watched terrified as two huge birds began tearing into her parachute canopy, one becoming tangled in her lines and clawing at her head 2,500 meters (8,200ft) in the air.

FORT MYERS BEACH, Fla. -- A crew aboard a shrimping boat were rescued after a group of bull sharks rammed and bit the vessel until it eventually sank off the Florida coast, according to an Associated Press report.

Captain Roger Schmall said a group of sharks had been slamming into the Christy Nichole's hull for four days. But then a 14-foot bull shark broke the boat's tail shaft, leaving Schmall and his crew of two adrift about 100 miles off the coast.

Schmall radioed for help, and another vessel picked the crew up about two hours later.

I blame the current political environment.
 
Obviously these animals have read the report of who is most likely responsible for the global warming situation ....

When even eagles and sharks come together to vote against the Iraq war escalation, that's something. Wow!

You missed their message. They were objecting to Hillary running for President. :p

Oh, please. Sharks would never object to a Clinton becoming president. Never before or since had there been so much chum in the political waters!

True enough, sharks and lawyers tend to extend one another professional courtesy.

I was thinking about the eagles. ;)

I think it's a good idea that the animal freedom fighters are protecting their homeland! (Or homewater, as in the case of the sharks. And homeair, in the case of the eagles.)
