Because tigers can often be found chillin' in a driveway in Grand Rapids. I suppose it could be Richard Parker.

Looks kinda real, if you squint.

I know an animal control officer who gets called out frequently for rubber snakes and reptiles.

Nope, Chuck Testa!

This just in from Buckinghamshire's premier journal of record, the Bucks Herald.

No doubt heads will roll at the New York Times because they missed this scoop. A poop scoop I suppose you could call it.

Shoppers’ horror as still-pooping dog runs amok in shopping centre

17:12Thursday 11 June 2015

A rogue dog caused a messy scene in the Friars Square shopping centre yesterday, leaving a trail of smelly destruction.

Shopper Damien Lucas was walking close to the bridge to the car park at around 3.45pm when he smelled what he thought was a ‘burned hair aroma’.

All of a sudden he says a man sprinted by, pulling his dog on a lead.

But Mr Lucas only realised why the man was running so quickly when he stepped in what the dog was leaving behind.

He said: “There was a horrible smell, then I saw a bloke with a dog on the end of a lead at the end of the walk way – he was sprinting which struck me as unusual.

“The smell was getting worse as I got towards the walkway, then I stepped in something.”

He added: “I tried to warn people but they were just looking at me, and because they were looking at me they were stepping in it. There was about five or six lumps all along the walkway and the smell was awful.”

Friars Square manager Andy Margieson said that security stopped the man as he tried to enter the shopping centre, and security staff called cleaners to deal with the mess as soon as it happened.

He said: “The man did pick up some of the poo and put it in the bin, but he obviously left some behind which was dealt with by our cleaners. This is why we do not allow dogs in the shopping centre.”
