An update on the dead puppies from the flight I mentioned a bit ago. Necropsies were "inconclusive" which would, unfortunately, be the case with death from overheating. Or suffocation. Or several other things. (Incidentally, all those cop shows that bring back autopsy results "proving" death by drowning and that the murder victim drowned in water other than where they were found? they lie.) So basically, no pre-existing problems were found to exonerate the airline, but no way to prove fault either.

Who knew?

That breeding ligers is illegal in Taiwan? I didn't. It's not illegal in the US, in case you wondered.

"We disagree [with] any kind of breeding program, including hybridization or intensive inbreeding, which aims only to create individuals for human attraction, especially those [that] will not exist in the natural world," Kurtis Jai-Chyi, the director of the Pingtung Rescue Center for Endangered Wild Animals at National Pingtung University of Science and Technology in Taiwan.


Which leaves me wondering what his opinion is of, oh, say, English Bulldogs. They are a breed entirely created for human attraction and would never exist in the natural world...
