Gettin' weird in the wild: I usually don't go for "news of the weird"-style postings (for that, go to Ananova's Quirkies or Chuck Shepherd himself), but this one is so odd: the Guardian writes about the discovery of the first case of homosexual necrophilia in a mallard. And in the "unfortunate headline" category, the Guardian runs a story entitled "Farting fish fingered," about the discovery of flatulent herrings.
