So you thought animals and crime didn't mix well.0:29
They can actually be more involved than you might think.0:32
Parrots often built strong friendships with their owners.0:35
That was unfortunate for one gang of burglars when Jack, a pet shop's resident parrot in Coventry, uk turned out to be no friend of theirs.0:39
One night, the burglars broke into the shop and attempted to steal Jack along with some other animals.0:48
But Jack scratched the thieves to pieces and the burglars had to make a quick getaway through the back door.0:53
The next morning, pet shop owner Caroline Hobday found Jack on top of his cage, squawking loudly.1:00
Caroline said that it looked like Jack had spent the rest of the night patrolling and protecting the other animals like a guard dog.1:06
She added that she was very proud of him.1:14
A policeman later said that they would possibly be able to trace the thieves from DNA samples taken from the blood they left behind.1:16
Well Jack, who's a clever boy then?1:24
Post a Comment that's quite a story.1:27
Well, in Egypt, a hungry donkey was actually sent to prison for stealing sweet corn from a field.1:30
It all started when the owner of an agricultural research institute noticed that he had had some of his crop stolen.1:38
The police set up a checkpoint to catch a thief, but caught a donkey munching the corn while the donkey's owner was given a fine of 50 Egyptian pounds.1:46
The donkey itself was sentenced to 24 hours in prison.1:57
The donkey refused to comment.2:02

Last week I read that a court in Boston, USA accidentally ordered a cat called Tabby Sal to do jury service.2:11
Tabby Sal's owner wrote to the court to explain the mistake.2:20
Mrs. Esposito said that Sal was a member of the family, so she had put his name down on the last census form under pet.2:23
She added that clearly there had been a mix up.2:31
However, an official replied that the cat had to attend the court.2:35
Mrs. Esposito then asked what the cat was supposed to say when the judge asked if the defendant was guilty or not guilty.2:39
A verdict was eventually reached and Tabby Sal didn't have to do jury service after all.2:49
