The Rules

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

I wonder how much cannibalism there is. I cant imagine their prey make it far past the entrance.

Go to a lil market, discuss politics, chat in coffee shops, etc ... all in a friendly manner between two species where one is 4× larger (in body-length alone) than the other. Basically like humans & cats.
