When pumpkins attack
Over in Michigan, a young deer has had its face wedged in a plastic jackalantern since Halloween. They're hoping to be able to rescue it today; they're just thankful they don't have Guy Fawkes as well...

Ferret-ari
You've probably already seen the tortoise with a wheel for his back leg, but have you come across Scooter the Ferret? Born with paralyzed back legs, Scooter is able to get about thanks to, erm, a scooter which his owner Bill Higbee has built for him:
Higbee built him a wheelchair "so his little legs can hang off the side and get stronger and things."
"We ran the aisles of Ace Hardware with this scooter," said Higbee.

When... squirrels attack
Never mind dogs, the new challenge to postmen is squirrels. Angry, attacking squirrels.
Barb Dougherty, a 30-year Postal Service employee, said she was attacked and bitten Monday by a squirrel while delivering mail in Oil City, about 75 miles north of Pittsburgh.
"It was a freak thing. It was traumatic," Dougherty told The Derrick newspaper. "I saw it there on the porch, put the mail in the box and turned to walk away and it jumped on me."
The squirrel was shot, so that it could be tested for rabies. They don't have any plans to test the postie in the same way.
