German accused of cannibalism blames victim
December 4, 2003 - KASSEL, GERMANY -- A German computer expert charged with killing, dismembering and eating the flesh of an Internet acquaintance made a detailed confession at the opening of his murder trial Wednesday. The accused said he was only doing what the victim wanted.

Armin Meiwes, 42, of Rotenburg, gave chilling testimony about how his fantasy of finding someone to become "a part of me" turned real.

Meiwes described matter-of-factly how Bernd Juergen Brandes, 43, traveled from Berlin to visit him in March 2001 in reply to an Internet advertisement seeking a young man for "slaughter and consumption."

Court-appointed psychiatrists found Meiwes fit to stand trial. His attorney argued against murder charges, saying the slaying was a form of mercy killing. Meiwes faces life in prison if convicted of murder.

Female Panda Heads Out of Town for Hot Date

MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Shuan Shuan, one of Mexico's three female giant pandas, embarked on what is hoped will be a voyage of love, bound for a Tokyo zoo where keepers will try to mate her with a Japanese panda stud.

Her hot date is Beijing-born Ling Ling from Tokyo's Ueno Zoo. The 18-year-old male panda has been to Mexico City three times but attempts at reproduction and artificial insemination failed to bear fruit.

Mexico was the first country outside China to successfully breed pandas in captivity.

Shuan Shuan, 16, left Mexico City's Chapultepec Zoo before daybreak in a covered pick-up truck and passed through customs before boarding a commercial Japan Airlines plane.

From the three Mexican-born lady pandas in Chapultepec zoo, Shuan Shuan was chosen to seduce Ling Ling as "she got on best with him" during his last visit, said Rafael Tinajero, the zoo's director.

The two bears showed their mutual attraction with "sounds, markings, by urinating, sniffing and looking at each other. There was interest between them," Tinajero said.



That last paraghaph says it all ...

DENVER, Colorado (AP) -- The Denver Zoo's four orangutans are smelling pretty good these days -- they're getting daily aromatherapy treatments.

That means the 20-year-old ape Mias gets chamomile on his right ear, basil and angelica on his nose, and fennel, eucalyptus and frankincense on his forehead.

Keepers says the treatment has helped alleviate symptoms from allergies and an upset stomach.

In Allie's case, the 8-year-old primate became depressed when her mother died two years ago. She stopped acting like the silly adolescent she was before her mother's death, but that changed when she started receiving daily aromatherapy.

"When you see how goofy they are, this is how it should be," keeper Rhonda Pietsch said as Allie played in her cage after an oil treatment.

Practitioners of aromatherapy say their oils extracted from plants promote physical, spiritual and emotional health.

The Denver Zoo is believed to be one of the first to try it out on animals.
