Ficlets

I’m not personally convinced this isn’t a hoax, but even if is, it’s a great story for a Ficlets inspiration:

Explorer Colonel John Blashford-Snell has had close encounters with vampire bats and angry bees, but his latest brush has been with a rather odd dog.

He spotted a rare breed of Double-Nosed Andean tiger hound, which has two noses, on a recent trip to Bolivia.

The chairman of the Scientific Exploration Society said the dog, named Xingu, was “not terribly handsome”.

It’s actually kind of cute, if you can overlook the fact it’s a mutant. Go over and take a look at the pictures yourself.

Also: “Double-Nosed Andean tiger hound”? Really? No wonder I think it’s a hoax.
