As an animal lover I find that the Globe and the NYTimes are running more and more animal stories. The Times in particular has run a large number of topical animal features in the Sunday Magazine. After June spoke about computer assisted journalism last night I got to thinking that a fun article would be to look at the growth in news about animals.
This is one such article, a story about a zebra/donkey hybrid. http://www.boston.com/news/science/articles/2010/07/29/rare_mix_of_donkey_zebra_born_in_ga_park/?p1=Well_MostPop_Emailed7_HP The photo is from the article appearing July 29th, 2010, on the Boston Globe's online version.
Wow, that is fascinating. I found this mix of healthhuman interest/animal loving in the NY times archives. Educational and entertaining!

Animal stories are always a draw.
