Eleven Members of Brazilian Family Seriously Ill After Unintentionally Eating World's Most Venomous Fish for Dinner

Eleven members of the same Brazilian family are in a critical condition in hospital after unwittingly cooking up the world's deadliest fish for their supper, it was reported today.

The pufferfish was caught by members of the Souza family while fishing near Duque de Caxias and contained a toxin 1,200 times more lethal than cyanide - a drop of which can kill within 24 hours.

The poison paralyses the muscles while the victim remains fully conscious, eventually dying of asphyxiation when the venom reaches the diaphragm.

Gorilla Scares Children at Zoo With Routine

A gorilla at the Henry Doorly Zoo in Omaha, Nebraska, likes to give his onlookers a thrill. As seen on this video, he waits motionless then lurches toward the viewing enclosure and gives it a bang. Shrieks -- and cheers -- ensue.

According to the person who filmed this, it’s a part of his regular routine. “The cool part is that he waits for someone to enter the barrier and a crowd before doing this routine,” he told Storyful.

If You Have Lost A Dog, Follow These Steps

If  you have lost a dog, follow these steps:

Do Not Post Your Dog on Craigslist as 'Free to Good Home' - Dog Flipper is Reselling Your Dog

This is what someone posted on Craigslist:

BEWARE : DOG FLIPPER !!! Help me find my dog please !!! (TOWSON)

If you are trying to re-home your dog, DO NOT give it to a black guy named Jay !! He is a dog flipper !!

I had my dog on Craigslist and this guy gave me a believable story so I allowed him to take my dog with the knowledge he could bring him back if things didn't work out. He came and got the dog at 9 pm on Tuesday evening. Wednesday evening I was scrolling thru the pet ads and saw an ad with a picture of my dog !! I opened the ad and sure enough it was his name (Jay) and his same phone number show contact info . I was furious to say the least. Obviously he only took my dog because he was free and wanted to make money on him. So I emailed him anonymously inquiring about the dog...no response. I also texted him from a different number inquiring about the dog...no response. The next morning I get a text from a strange number asking if I was missing a dog. Well this guy said he adopted the dog but the dog was scared and got out of the collar and ran away. No, it was a friend of Jay's just telling me that so I would think the dog was gone.

Jay told me before getting the dog that his girlfriend took his dog, a Yorkie, and then they split up and he told her to keep the dog that he would get himself another. He even sent me a video of him teaching the dog to rollover. He also told me he was moving back to Florida with his mother.

In his ad for my dog, it was a different story. He said he was in the military and was being deployed to Korea and couldn't take the dog.

My dog's name is Tucker. Jay said in his ad the dog's name was Cane...not. He is a Standard Rat Terrier. He is predominantly white with black spots. He is wearing a blue collar and his toenails are very long.

If anyone has adopted my dog, or knows his whereabouts, I would so very much appreciate any information you may have. I want to get my dog back and find him a decent, loving home...not with some dog flipper that doesn't care about Tucker's welfare !!

Below is the original Craigslist ad that I copied from. Ads on Craigslist stay up for approximately one week, so it may no longer be active.

Ebola Virus: Australian Researchers Use Ferrets to Develop Vaccine for Deadly Disease

Australian researchers infecting ferrets to understand the deadly Ebola VIRUS at the CSIRO in Geelong said a vaccine would not come fast enough to stop the current outbreak.

According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), more than 650 people have been killed in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone since an outbreak began in February.

The doctor leading Sierra Leone's fight against Ebola died on Tuesday afternoon (local time) from the virus.

There is no cure for the disease, which causes vomiting, diarrhea and internal and external bleeding.
