VIRGINIA WATER, England, May 22 (Reuters) – Sergio Garcia was so upset by the furore caused by his “fried chicken” jibe at Tiger Woods that he contemplated pulling out of this week’s PGA Championship at Wentworth, the Spaniard said on Wednesday. World number 14 Garcia added that his comment, made at the European Tour’s Player of the Year awards on Tuesday, was “stupid and out of place” and he regretted it the moment he said it.

Endangered animals in Texas are getting a second chance at life thanks to the Houston Zoo.

The Attwater’s prairie chicken, the Houston toad and five species of sea turtles are being rehabilitated to be released into the wild in coming weeks, according to Peter Riger, the zoo’s vice president of conservation and science. The grouse-like Attwater’s prairie chicken, which once thrived throughout coastal Texas and Louisiana, are now believed to number less than 100 in the wild.

Helicopter lands in zoo to pick up ill woman

admin — Mon, 06 May 2013 10:09:57 +0000

COLCHESTER, England, May 5 (UPI) — An air ambulance touched down in the elephant pit of England’s Colchester Zoo in order to rescue a woman suffering from breathing problems, officials said.

The Essex Air Ambulance was called to the zoo just before 11:30 a.m. Sunday to pick up a 19-year-old woman, The Sunday Telegraph reported. What exactly the woman was suffering from was not reported.

Officials determined that the elephant pit would be the easiest place for the helicopter to land, so zookeepers moved four elephants living there inside their house before the helicopter touched down.
