It has not happened here and I guess it has not happened anywhere else,” said Edward Kariuki, a warden at the animal home in the Kenyan capital. (Photo: Thomas Mukoya/Reuters)

Clinging to the under-belly of a baboon, Gakii, a 3-month-old orphaned bush baby has plumped for an unlikely surrogate-mother.

In the grounds of the Nairobi Animal Orphanage, the duo cavort around in each others’ arms, drink milk out of the same bowl and poke mischievously at a Reuters television camera.

“This is not normal. It has not happened here and I guess it has not happened anywhere else,” said Edward Kariuki, a warden at the animal home in the Kenyan capital. (Photo: Thomas Mukoya/Reuters)

“Which one? This cord? The other one? This one? Is it this?? Which one??? I am trying to do a good job here but also at the same time get off of my medication and it is all a little overwhelming for me right now, you know? Was I supposed to make the coffee? Because where is the coffee?? All my plants are dying. Maybe it’s the fluorescent lights? My mother says plants just don’t like me. I don’t understand why they smell so bad, though. Ok, just point to the cord you mean -I don’t want to touch the wrong thing and get electrocuted all over again.
Please don’t fire me. I get fired so much. “

Rangers shell-shocked at 93kg green sea turtle’s 2600km ocean odyssey after having flipper amputated 

The 93kg green sea turtle was taken to Australia Zoo’s Wildlife Hospital after being rescued by Moreton Bay Marine Park staff last December. She had been seriously injured after becoming entangled in a crab pot float line and her left front flipper sustained such damage that it had to be amputated.
After six weeks of rehabilitation, Noel was released off Mooloolaba, with experts uncertain of her future. Fitted with a tracking device, the resilient reptile proved she could not only survive but thrive.
Since February 3, she has travelled more than 2600km, paddling around Moreton Bay before heading south to Sydney. The head of Australia Zoo’s rescue unit, Brian Coulter, said Noel was leaving many four-flippered friends in her wake.
“This is a mindblowing achievement, given she only has three flippers,” Mr Coulter said.
“It is very important research because it shows that amputee turtles can survive. Some institutions have euthanased them in the past, thinking they would not make it.”
The zoo helps to rescue and repair up to 180 turtles a year.
