She could have easily strangled it instead.

Now to show evidence of my hypothesis that the dog started the fight I want you watch this video where
we see a perfectly peaceable Mountain Lion, minding his own business, and then being set upon by two
obnoxious barking dogs who continue with deliberate harassment of the poor lion - And you will notice
how the lion showed restraint and did not attack, at least at first, when in fact he could have easily
beaten the dogs!

Dogs VS Mountain Lion!

The cat didn't seem too bothered & the dogs didn't do much other than circle & bark. The German Shepherd wasn't too keen to get close. They'd probably need another 6 dogs before doing anything but in typical dog fashion were happy to chase after it when it runs off & would probably claim this as a victory in chasing it off their patch.
 
Those dogs were wagging their tails! They were just messing about.
 
THIS THREE-CONTINENT ANT MEGA-COLONY WILL CONQUER EARTH SOON

THE ARGENTINE ANT PLAGUE

""
The prolific and pestilential Argentine ants were once native to South America, but we’ve unintentionally introduced them everywhere else too (all continents except Antarctica). On several of the continents, they’ve formed vast colonies. The so-called ‘California Large’ reportedly stretches almost 560 miles along California’s coast. Over in Europe, meanwhile, there’s one that covers 3,700 miles along the Mediterranean coastline!

If you’re getting antsy just thinking about the sheer size of these groupings, remember that they were once thought to be isolated. Now we know there’s a connection between these super-colonies. What we’re actually looking at is (possibly) one super super colony!........"

COME ON OVER, MEET THE FAMILY

""
Ants from the different super-colonies were matched up against each other, to determine their levels of aggression to each other. It was found that ants from the smaller super-colonies would be as aggressive to one other as always, but those from the main ones (the Californian, larger European and larger Japanese colonies) would not. On the contrary, they engaged in friendly antenna-rubbing ant behavior.

The fact that these little creatures—that had been were separated by thousands of miles—were so friendly is intriguing. The report concludes, “The most plausible explanation is that ants from these three super-colonies are indeed family, and are all genetically related, say the researchers. When they come into contact, they recognize each other by the chemical composition of their cuticles.”

What we’re looking at, in short, isn’t so much a global population as a global community..........."

I say give them a chance - Certainly could not do more harm to the Earth than Humans, right?

Masters of construction and building and eco-friendly - What more can you ask?

So stop worrying about ET and Alien invasions - With the ants on our side we will triumph!

No he doesn't - you have invented the quote.

Walsh's research investigates how climate change affects fertility; he recently co-authored a study exploring the impacts of extreme temperatures on animal, plant and fungi reproduction, published Jan. 9 in the journal Trends in Ecology and Evolution.

His current work with fruit flies — which led to the image shared on Twitter — examines how temperature affects males' ability to produce viable sperm, a process known as spermatogenesis.

I award you with a prize for desperate shoehorning.
 
Outrageous. Absolutely shocked by that. That the Mirror could stoop that low, that desperately, to glorify a z-rate non-celeb and drag in the long-dead Queen of Bleedin' Hearts?

This surely should be in the Sunday Express?
