Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

I don't think NZ has crocs, best you could do is probably a sheep.

I'm sure you could find a Cassowary around to get some equivalent amount of chaos to a croc.

I was unaware that there were cassowaries in NZ. We tried to find them in the various aviaries and zoos, to no avail, because they aren't endemic and NZ has VERY strict rules about importation of birds.

There likely isn't. I was just making a dumb joke about what a Flordia man inspired Kiwi would do.

Well, at least I know we didn't spend all that time searching only to miss them. I was afraid I was going to find out that you live near a bunch of them somewhere on the North Island.
