Here's the fact for today. In August of 2003, locals reported seeing something strange in Florida's Gasparilla Lake. They spotted a dolphin. The only reason this is weird, is that this lake is completely landlocked, with no access to the Gulf of Mexico. Celebrate the return! I'm going to keep posting these until I start to get too busy again.

Here's the fact for today. Some elephants in Kenya bury sleeping hunters under leaves and branches. The elephants seem to think that the hunters are dead. That's amazing, and more amazing is that for such a large animal they can be so gentle.
