1 00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:09,679 Speaker 1: Callaroga Shark Media. Hi there, I'm Johnny Mack with five 2 00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:12,759 good news stories. In South Korea, police were called into 3 00:00:12,839 --> 00:00:16,719 the coffee cafe. You know why. It was a loose parrot. 4 00:00:16,719 --> 00:00:20,160 That's right. The Korean Animal Rescue and Management Association said 5 00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:23,199 police were called to the coffee shop. Not only was 6 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:26,679 the parrot loose, it was stealing coffee from customers. See, 7 00:00:26,679 --> 00:00:30,199 that's the real issue. The parrot reported to be friendly. 8 00:00:30,199 --> 00:00:32,280 It was fed snacks by the cafe's owner and allowed 9 00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:34,359 customers to pettit while they waited for the police to 10 00:00:34,399 --> 00:00:37,200 show up. It is believed the parrot is a yellow 11 00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:40,640 crowned Amazon parrot native to Central America and it made 12 00:00:40,679 --> 00:00:44,200 its way to Korea. That's interesting. The species is endangered 13 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:46,000 and not legal to be kept as a pet in 14 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:49,200 South Korea without special permits. Keep an eye on the 15 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:52,960 coffee stealing parrot. I have some Thanksgiving leftovers for you. 16 00:00:53,719 --> 00:00:57,719 Nice job by Kathy Leslie. She owns Leslie's Sugar High 17 00:00:57,759 --> 00:01:00,840 Bakery and Cafe. They cooked up hot holiday meals for 18 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:04,879 over seven hundred families, she told News Channel five Nashville. Listen, 19 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:06,920 this is the truth. People are hurting. They're hurting financially, 20 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,400 they don't have food. They're hurting mentally, so we just 21 00:01:09,439 --> 00:01:11,159 need to do the best that we can to be kind, 22 00:01:11,239 --> 00:01:14,920 loving and generous to somebody. That's called sugar Baby. Sugar 23 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,400 High's annual Thanksgiving cookout began at twenty seventeen with the 24 00:01:18,439 --> 00:01:21,920 help of Princess Hot Chicken and the Housing Fund. Leslie 25 00:01:22,079 --> 00:01:25,319 estimates they've served around one thousand free meals. One of 26 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,680 the volunteers said, we're showing them we care and showing 27 00:01:27,719 --> 00:01:29,920 them they're part of a great community. Nice job by 28 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,959 those folks. Gus the turkey made it through Thanksgiving. That's 29 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,760 good news for him. Gus is one of a growing 30 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,719 number of turkeys that are being adopted instead of being 31 00:01:39,719 --> 00:01:43,560 covered in grievy. An increasing number of farm animal sanctuaries 32 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:47,239 across the country have started promoting turkey adoption At Love 33 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,400 and Arms. A twenty five dollars donation comes with a certificate, photo, 34 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:52,680 and either a virtual or in person visit. That's what 35 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,680 you'll find Gus or if you're in Denver. Love in 36 00:01:55,799 --> 00:01:58,640 Arms is about forty miles north of Denver. The funds 37 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,560 he'll pay for the turkey outdoor pasture area, along with 38 00:02:01,599 --> 00:02:05,879 feeding and rescuing more turkeys. Mexico recently resigned it's fifty 39 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,319 payso note. Why well, people are hoarding them. You see, 40 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,479 they redesigned it and they have a picture of Gorda. 41 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,280 Gorda was an amphibian of sorts that lived at a 42 00:02:15,319 --> 00:02:17,879 Mexico city museum. The note was so well done it 43 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:21,000 won Note of the Year at the International Banknote Society. 44 00:02:21,599 --> 00:02:24,680 Some first edition banknotes are now trading at one hundred times. 45 00:02:24,719 --> 00:02:28,960 They're roughly three dollars value. A particular salamander never loses 46 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:32,400 its gills and remains aquatic its whole life. A report 47 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,319 from the Mexican government says some one hundred and fifty 48 00:02:35,439 --> 00:02:37,960 million dollars worth of fifty paso notes are now out 49 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,479 of circulation because people really just like looking at the Gorda. 50 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,280 And this next story is not really good news at all, 51 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,800 but let's consider it a celebration. Grandma the tortoise has 52 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,759 passed away at age one hundred and forty one. Grandma 53 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:55,280 lived in the San Diego Zoo and lived through twenty presidencies. 54 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:59,960 Born on the Galapagos Islands on November fifteenth, eighteen eighty four, 55 00:03:00,319 --> 00:03:02,800 living under a rock, her first few years. In the 56 00:03:02,879 --> 00:03:06,919 nineteen twenties and thirties, conservationists came to the Galopagos to 57 00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,719 save the species. During an expedition in either nineteen twenty 58 00:03:10,719 --> 00:03:13,719 eight or nineteen thirty one, it's unclear, Grandma made her 59 00:03:13,759 --> 00:03:17,280 way to the Bronx and eventually to San Diego. Grandma 60 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:21,319 was born during Chester A. Arthur's presidency. She saw twenty 61 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,639 presidents turn sixty during World War Two. Scientists say in 62 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,840 the wild, every ten thousandth giant tortoise lives to be 63 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,960 two hundred years old. In captivity, tortoises don't have to 64 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:34,000 worry about predators, and they eat pretty well. One of 65 00:03:34,039 --> 00:03:36,080 the experts say they're essentially a horse with a shell. 66 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,840 They eat grass and leafy greens. Grandma the tortoise was 67 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,479 one hundred and forty one years old. Those are your 68 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,560 stories for today. Have a great day.
