Sarah, the Cincinnati Zoos eight-year-old female cheetah, is now the worlds fastest of all land mammals. Today, Sarah earned her spot in the record book when she crossed the finish line in the 100-meter sprint with a time of 6.16 seconds in her very first attempt, breaking the previous mark of 6.19 seconds set by a male South African cheetah named Nyana in 2001. Then, in her second attempt she broke her own record with a time of 6.13 seconds. (For comparison, the Fastest Human on Earth, Jamaican Sprinter Usain Bolt, recently posted a 9.58 in the 100-meter dash.)

of rare pink iguanas discovered on galapagos islands

Rare pink iguanas confirmed on Galapagos Islands: A team of Ecuadoran and Italian researchers have confirmed the discovery of a unique species of pink land iguanas living on the Galapagos Islands, the scientist who wrote the report told AFP. The pink iguanas can be up to 1.8 meters (6 feet) long as measured from tip to tail, and unlike the other land iguanas does not have a row of spines running up its back.



Washington Tapia, head of research at the Galapagos National Park, said,

It is surprising to have made a find of this magnitude in the 21st century. We have not yet determined the size of the population, but we estimate that it is small because we have only captured 36 pink iguanas for research up to now.

of qian hu

lancerlady and I brought lancerlad to Qian Hu fish farm yesterday. We spent an hour walking around the farm.



I did not take many photos of the variety of fish at the farm because of poor lighting at the farm. On top of that, a "cannot make it" camera and "cannot make it" phototaking skills.



lancerlad was not very bothered with the fish at the farm because he spotted the ice cream container at the cafe. He concentrated on eating the ice cream as we made our way around the compound.


Qian Hu looks like a nice place to work in. There is staff recognition awards given to its staff and a worker's quarters in the compound where the workers can rest and have their meals.


If you are bored of looking at fish, you can also read the many newspaper and magazine articles hung up all across the farm.


After the visit, I can say that all the fish in Singapore belongs to Qian Hu.
