Knife-wielding roosters kill 2 men in cockfighting events in India.

Two men have reportedly been killed by knife-wielding roosters in separate cockfights in India.

To mark the three-day celebration of the Hindu Makar Sankrati festival, people gathered to hold cockfights in the Kakinada and East Godavari districts on Sunday, according to reports. During the incident in Kakinada, Gande Suryapraksha Rao, the 43-year-old owner of one of the fighting roosters, bled to death after being slashed by his prized cock..Rao reportedly tied blades to his rooster before it became intimidated by the crowd. The bird then flew up and landed on Rao, causing the blades to severely slash his leg. Although the man was rushed to a local hospital, he was later pronounced dead.

In a separate incident in the East Godavari district, a spectator identified as K. Padmaraju also bled to death after he was slashed in the hand. Padmaraju, who was a resident of Ananthapalli, was reportedly standing too close to a cockfight when one of the bladed roosters sliced a key nerve in his hand. The man bled out on the way to the hospital, where he was later declared dead."

A lot of really messed up stuff happens in India, and through Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. It's just, you have to know where to look, and what to look for. Which isn't easy to do without bringing up the linguistic and dialectics factor. That's part of why it doesn't become known much about in Western cultures. The other part of the reason is that quite frankly, no place wants the worst of its criminal happenings to be at the forefront of public representation.

And here I am tweezing mine out.
I can never be cool.

Puking cat gravy boat

I'm less concerned about the style of the gravy boat and more concerned why someone would put gravy over cilantro. Doesn't that defeat the purpose of cilantro?

Don’t drink and fly: Georgia wildlife officials warn about drunk birds

Apr. 14, 2023 at 9:01 AM MDT

ATLANTA, Ga. (Atlanta News First) - Don’t drink and fly; Georgia wildlife officials are warning residents to be on the lookout for drunk birds.

According to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources around this time of year is when fruit-eating birds such as cedar waxwings and American robins may overindulge in fruit that has started to rot and ferment. A byproduct of fermentation is the production of alcohol, officials said.

“The consumption of these fermented fruits can cause the birds to lose much of their coordination and capacity to fly,” DNR officials explained in a Facebook post. “This can cause them to crash into windows and other obstacles. Sadly, they can also die directly from alcohol poisoning if they ingest enough of the fermented fruit.”

“Another possible cause for drunken flying is that the birds have eaten Nandina (sacred bamboo) berries,” the post says. “This exotic invasive plant is used in landscaping and draws cyanide from the soil, depositing often lethal doses in its bright red fruit.”

DNR officials are encouraging people to “learn from our feathered friends and consume fruits responsibly.”
