Wordless Wednesday
It seems that even pigs know how to play soccer!
These plastic pigs were set up in Germany as part of a display for Soccer Euro 2008. Apparently a A butcher’s shop installed the scene in front of its store for promotion purposes.

Soccer’s for the Birds
Or at least that’s what one zoo in Japan believes:
A flock of the birds dressed in soccer jerseys showed off their dribbling and shooting skills at a Japanese zoo as football fever gripped the nation.
The four young carrion crows at Tokuyama Zoo in western Japan used their beaks to dribble a miniature ball toward a soccer goal, sometimes tackling each other for possession before scoring, according to head zookeeper Satoru Tanaka.
The crows get tidbits every time they score, Tanaka said.
“We tried to coach owls and falcons as well, but the crows were the best. They’re such intelligent creatures,” he said. The birds have only received about a month’s training, he added.
The zoo is now trying to teach the avian team to pass and take free kicks, according to Tanaka.
