SACRAMENTO, CA -- After hearing neighbors' stories of wild turkeys chasing down joggers and other residents in an Arden- area neighborhood, News10 producer Duffy Kelly went out for a firsthand look.
A sheep that was rescued as a lamb and brought up with a springer spaniel is now convinced he is a sheep dog.
Jack is so sure he is a canine he fetches sticks, wears a collar and a lead, jumps up on his hind legs and even tries to bark.
The six-month-old pet doesn't even recognise his own species and tries to herd sheep when he is put in the field with the rest of the flock.
Sitting all alone on a beach, this little seal is an outcast from the colony.
Its crime? Having reddish-brown fur and the palest of blue eyes. The rest of its sleek black family took an instant dislike to the ginger pup, leaving it to fend for itself.
The pictures were taken by Anatoly Strakhov, who spotted the seal on Tyuleniy Island, Russia.
The photographer, 61, said: ‘He was hiding and waiting for his mother to come and feed him.
‘He had a very strange colour fur and looked different from his two black brothers.
I was pleased to be able to capture such an unusual animal, but the poor seal is almost blind and so was unlikely to survive in the wild.’
Luckily, Mr Strakhov was with staff from a dolphinarium who took it into their care.
The pup – whose colour is the result of an accumulation of iron in its fur – might have had more luck in the U.S. One of the biggest concentrations of red-haired seals is in San Francisco.-dailymail.co.uk
