SeaWorld Sadness: An Orca Whale Kills Its Trainer
The more I read about SeaWorld trainer Dawn Brancheau, who was killed yesterday, the sadder I get. In an article about Brancheau written years ago, she told the Orlando Sentinel about going to SeaWorld for the first time when she was 9. “I remember walking down the aisle [of Shamu Stadium] and telling my mom, `This is what I want to do,’ ” Dawn said. “You can’t put yourself in the water unless you trust them and they trust you.”
Horribly ironic, since yesterday, during a lunchtime “Dine with Shamu” event, Telly, a 30-year-old 12,000-pound whale, pulled Brancheau under water. “[She] was laying on the platform, massaging the whale, petting it. All of a sudden, it latched on and took her under,” said a witness. “He came up one time out of the water with her in his mouth. That was the last we saw of her because they were running us out of there.” Alarms went off as an emergency crew tried to rescue Dawn. Keep reading »

Indies Shmindies — We Want Chimp-Directed Movies!
Call them chimpanzees with a dream. Eleven chimps at the Edinburgh Zoo recently got the chance to make movie magic—they were given video cameras in boxes, complete with touch screens, and were trained to use them to film their own flicks. Yes, they got lots of footage of their toes and the camerawork is a little “Blair Witch Project”-esque, but they also managed to film lots of tender moments and drama. The final result, called “The Chimp Cam Project,” will be airing on the BBC soon. [Daily Mail] Keep reading »
Random Fashion: Levi’s And Cram Jam Chest Make Denim Doggy
Have you ever heard of Cram Jam Chest? Us neither. From the looks of their half-in-Japanese website, they make stuffed art. In any case, they’ve teamed up with Levi’s to make a series of puppies made out of denim for the Levi’s store in Shibuya, Japan. Is this a good way to recycle jeans? These denim doggies are mighty cute … but not sure we’d put down for a stuffed animal. (No one can ever replace Winkie, the all but destroyed teddy bear you won’t admit to keeping under your pillow).
