GENEVA, Switzerland– Police divers have ended the reign of terror of a huge fish that was attacking swimmers in a Swiss lake. The zander, was harpooned on Sunday after it bit six swimmers over the weekend, fish warden Fabio Croci told local media. Two swimmers were treated in hospital for bite wounds up to 10 centimetres (four inches) long after being attacked on Lac Majeur. The meat from the captured fish was served up to tourists at the lake. "It is quite unusual for zanders to bite humans," Croci said, adding he suspected the fish was suffering from a hormonal imbalance which could be responsible for its aggression.

HICKERVILLE, Arkansas- When a truck carrying 90 pigs overturned on interstate 40 it was only a matter of time before the 40 pigs that weren't captured would show up somewhere. It turns out one of them, a 900 pounder, had taken a liking to the pool at Bev and Bink Legeaux's house in Stillwell, while they were gone on vacation. Mr. LeGeaux said, "That porker broke into our house and slept on the couch, from the look of it. Seemed to like the swimming pool a lot, too. Acted just like my son when he is home from college."

NEW YORK, New York- Dogs often resemble their owners which is why the breed category known as toy dogs are rarely seen with champion weight lifters. But Sammy Schward is the exception to that rule.

SAN BERNADINO, California- A bear busted into a San Bernardino County home and was gobbling up a box of chocolates from a couple's refrigerator just when they arrived home. The bear pushed aside vegetables in the fridge to get the two-pound box of sweets. Officials said the bear also tried to open a bottle of champagne but was not successful. "Humans live inside because it's safer and nicer than living outside. Why wouldn't the animals who live outside get jealous and want what we have inside? They can get vegetables outside, but inside is where you find the chocolate and champagne," said UC-Riverside biologist Peter Murat.

IRON MOUNTAIN, Michigan- A black bear just won't stay out of Sue Frumritter's house and it is hurting her love life.

"We don't often see polar bears hanging around but lately when we surface they have been studying the sub's exterior, almost trying to figure out how to get in.
