Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola, LA, USA, has more than 3800 prisoners- 75% of its population- serving a life sentence! Dikerogammarus Villosus- a crustacean native to the Black Sea, is known as the killer shrimp because it viciously kills a wide range of animals, often without even eating what it kills! Partially blind Gradham Waspe of Suffolk, England, and his former guide dog Edward- now blind himself, share a new guide dog!
