00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:10,160
Speaker 1: Kalaroga Shark Media. Hey there, I'm Johnny Mack with five

2
00:00:10,199 --> 00:00:12,480
few new stories. This is pretty cool. England now has

3
00:00:12,519 --> 00:00:16,000
a hiking trail that traces its entire coastline. It is

4
00:00:16,039 --> 00:00:20,320
the King Trails, the third England Coast Path. It stretches

5
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:22,960
twenty six hundred and eighty nine miles around the coast

6
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,039
of England, making the first trail in the world to

7
00:00:25,039 --> 00:00:28,359
follow the full perimeter of a nation's coastline. They've been

8
00:00:28,359 --> 00:00:30,600
working on this for eighteen years and includes around one

9
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,840
thousand miles of newly built, connected or upgraded paths, along

10
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:36,840
with the new boardwalks and bridges. The trail was inaugurated

11
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:40,119
by the King himself, who looked delighted one walking part

12
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:43,560
of the newly completed route near the famous Seven Sisters

13
00:00:43,719 --> 00:00:47,640
Chalk Cliffs. He was joined by Tony from Natural England.

14
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,240
They're the organization that oversaw the project. Tony said the

15
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:53,679
path is a testament to how public enjoyment, conservation, heritage,

16
00:00:53,719 --> 00:00:56,679
history and community can come together, helping make life better

17
00:00:56,719 --> 00:01:00,000
for millions of people. Before the route existed, it was

18
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,960
it's technically possible to walk the coastline bits and pieces,

19
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:06,000
but sometimes you had to walk on rods through weird gaps.

20
00:01:06,519 --> 00:01:08,879
Now most of the route is continuous, with only two

21
00:01:09,079 --> 00:01:12,760
real interruptions. One you have to take a ferry, all right,

22
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:15,359
Well that's a little cheating there, and another where a

23
00:01:15,439 --> 00:01:19,359
river gets in your way. Close enough now, sometimes you

24
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,920
just want to get away. Well, an apossum did just that.

25
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:27,280
An apossum was stowed away on a northbound cargo ship

26
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:30,879
and ended up in Alaska, which is pretty far from

27
00:01:30,879 --> 00:01:34,000
where a possums normally hang out. It was spotted in Juno.

28
00:01:34,719 --> 00:01:37,840
One responder was like, I don't think that's an apossum

29
00:01:37,879 --> 00:01:41,400
because we're in Alaska. But it was an apossum, and

30
00:01:41,439 --> 00:01:44,120
the apostlem was chill. It didn't hiss, didn't bite, no drama.

31
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,200
The apostle was calmly guided into a trap like an

32
00:01:47,239 --> 00:01:50,319
apossum that realized, yeah, I may have overshot this trip

33
00:01:50,359 --> 00:01:53,560
a little. Here's the issue though, In Alaska, apossums are

34
00:01:53,599 --> 00:01:56,560
considered an invasive species, so they couldn't just release him.

35
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,439
He now lives at the Alaska Zoo, where he's been

36
00:01:59,439 --> 00:02:02,439
given a name Meatball. The zoo didn't have it a

37
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:06,200
possum since the previous bossom Grubby passed away last year,

38
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,639
so it kind of worked out. In Chile, they have

39
00:02:09,719 --> 00:02:13,759
a massive new maritime protected area. The area now covers

40
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,400
about three hundred and eighty six thousand square miles. That's

41
00:02:16,439 --> 00:02:20,120
bigger than Texas. It is the third largest protected marine

42
00:02:20,159 --> 00:02:23,919
seascape of the world. The area includes whales, dolphins, turtles, octopus,

43
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:27,800
shiny lobsters, seabirds, a seal, not just one seal, you

44
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,840
know what type of seal, and a vast underwater mountain chain.

45
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:35,360
The mayor of Robinson Crusoe Island said, this commitment reflects

46
00:02:35,439 --> 00:02:37,879
the heart of our community. Expanding marine protections is not

47
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:42,800
only about conserving biodiversity, It's about safeguarding our culture, our traditions,

48
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,879
and the future of our children. Well, some delivery robots

49
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:52,000
in Chicago are having a bad time. Two delivery robots

50
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:56,560
crashed into bus shelters on separate days. The first happened

51
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,759
when a robot operated by Serve Robotics crashed into a

52
00:02:59,759 --> 00:03:03,199
Sea VTA shelter had grand and racine and shattered the glass.

53
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,400
The whole thing was caught on camera, and then the

54
00:03:05,479 --> 00:03:08,159
robot just stopped and sat there like it had explained

55
00:03:08,159 --> 00:03:12,120
what happened. A spokesperson for Serve Robotics said, we're aware

56
00:03:12,159 --> 00:03:14,319
of the incident and one of our robots in Chicago.

57
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,479
No injuries reported. Our team responded quickly to clean up

58
00:03:17,479 --> 00:03:19,599
and we're reviewing what happened to make improvements. We've been

59
00:03:19,599 --> 00:03:23,240
in contact and we take this matter very seriously. Then

60
00:03:23,719 --> 00:03:28,120
two days later, a different robot operated by Cocoa Robotics

61
00:03:28,319 --> 00:03:30,919
smashed the glass at a bus shelter on North Avenue

62
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:35,199
near Halstead. Carl is the VP at Coco and said,

63
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,360
we're aware of an incident today in Chicago involving our robot.

64
00:03:38,479 --> 00:03:41,439
This is something we take seriously and as well outside

65
00:03:41,479 --> 00:03:44,719
the norm of our operations. He added the company would

66
00:03:44,759 --> 00:03:48,759
cover the repair costs. In the UK, they are warning

67
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:52,479
about the danger of discarded vapes after a squirrel was

68
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,479
caught vaping on camera. Well maybe not vaping, but it

69
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:58,560
was chewing on a vape. Footage shows a gray squirrel

70
00:03:58,639 --> 00:04:00,960
nibbling at the mouthpiece of a discord to nicotine vape

71
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,680
while perched on a wooden fence. Craig is a red

72
00:04:03,719 --> 00:04:07,080
squirrel expert at Bangor University. He said the fruity smell

73
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,680
and flavoring and vape liquid might be what attracts the

74
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,360
animals in the first place. He said it would be

75
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,560
reasonable to assume that a vape would be more attractive

76
00:04:13,599 --> 00:04:16,759
than a normal tobacco product that's not fruity. You don't

77
00:04:16,759 --> 00:04:20,959
want animals ingesting nicotine. He also said eating a vape

78
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,800
is not part of their natural diet. The components aren't

79
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,040
something they encounter in nature. They can naut it and

80
00:04:26,079 --> 00:04:29,639
consume some of the microplastics, so cut it out, everybody

81
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:31,879
in Those are your five good news stories for today.

82
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:32,519
Have a great day.
