OZ to Live after killing zoo keeper

In a statement provided by Hamilton Zoo it has been reaffirmed that ‘Oz’, the Sumatran tiger that mauled a woman to death will not be put down.  Oz’s victim Samantha Lynda Kudeweh, 43, was a beloved member of the Hamilton zoo team and had been a zoo keeper for over 20 years.
In a statement released by the Hamilton Zoo, it was said that 11-year-old tiger Oz will not be euthanised. As they assured the public and zoo supporters that they have no reason to put him down. They recognise that there is an inherent risk for zoo professionals to manage big cats like Oz, hence they have no logical reason to put him down.
In a statement released a short time ago, Kudeweh’s family thanked the public and the global zoo community for their messages of support over the past couple of days.

Japan beat South Africa at World Cup

I wonder how the All Blacks go a gest the Japan.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Japan has caused the biggest upset in Rugby World Cup history by beating two time winners South Africa, 34-32 in their opening Pool B match.
Former Otago and Napier Boys High winger, Karne Hesketh, scored in the 84th minute to snatch victory for Japan in a pulsating contest.
The Springboks outscored Japan four tries to three, but the kicking of fullback Ayumu Goromaru kept Japan in the contest.
“We’ve worked for this for the last four years,” victorious captain New Zealander Michael Leitch said immediately after the game.
Impressive tacking from Japan kept them within two points of the Springboks at half-time. In the second half both sides exchanged penalties before Springboks scored a try to replacement front rower Adriaan Strauss.
But Japan never gave up and found space out wide, sending Goromaru in at the corner. A final penalty to South Africa was their last scoring play before Japan applied huge pressure in the final 10 minutes, which ultimately resulted in the final try in the 84th minute.
Earlier this morning Georgia recorded just their third Rugby World Cup win with a 17-10 upset over Tonga in their Pool C opener in Gloucester before Six Nations champions Ireland trounced Canada 50-7 in Cardiff.

How does a digger work

How does a digger work.
A digger is a  very powerful machine  that helps pick up stuff and knock them down. There is other parts on  diggers. The parts on diggers are very strong such as the arm, the cab and the track/wheels.
The Arm
The arm on a digger is a  very strong arm. IT can pick stuff up that other things can’t,  for example buildings, cars. cages and other stuff.
the cab
The cab on  diggers help the people protect them  so  they don’t get hurt. They are for keeping the drivers from the rain and if anything falls down on them.

The tracks
The tracks on a diggers are very heavy. If they went  on concrete they will crush it because they are way to heavy to go on to the concrete.

Two Tauranga brothers have become internet celebrities after their mother filmed them attempting to ride their pet sheep.
Sally Phillip Steiner filmed her son's, 3 year old Oliver and 7 year old James, as they played with their sheep Dotty and Sinead. She then shared the funny video with a few friends and posted it on the family’s Facebook page and YouTube.
After receiving more than 3 million views an American news site wrote about the video which led to a lot more publicity. The video has been viewed millions of times on Facebook, YouTube and similar media sites.
The sheep don’t seem to cooperate with the brothers’ antics but it sure looks like fun!
