  • China Addressing Pollution in Yunnan
    DUKAS_3274474_WPN
    China Addressing Pollution in Yunnan
    A rural factory contributes to China's air pollution issue in Yunnan, China on Monday, October 4, 2004.

    On the rise since the 1970s, pollution continues to plague the Yunnan Province in China. Factors affecting increased pollution range from agricultural and residential activities to anthropogenic-toxic pollution from industrial runoff, and are affecting all areas of the environment from air and water quality to soil grade. Steps are being taken to correct the pollution problem in the form of loans from foreign governments and environmental initiatives such as the Dianchi Environmental Action Plan (DEAP) addressing the pollution of Dianchi Lake.

    Kumbuka Is A Pumpkin Party Pooper
    Only someone very brave would call 28 stone gorilla Kumbuka 'My Little Pumpkin'.

    Especially as the silverback seemed less than impressed when presented with some of the carved treats as a pre-Halloween surprise at Paignton Zoo in Devon.

    Keepers thought they would get him in the mood for the spooky celebration by leaving him a stack of carved pumpkins to find when he emerged in the morning.

    However, after quickly dismantling the pumpkin stack Kumbuka demonstrated his dislike of the occasion by hurling them at photographer Richard Austin.

    Luckily, despite his prodigious strength Kumbuka wasn't able to clear the protective moat around his enclosure and the orange missiles were left bobbing in the water.

    The 15-year-old silverback weighs in at an impressive 400 pounds or 28 stone.

    He was born on 15th November 1997 and came to Paignton Zoo from La Boissiere Zoo in France.

    His keepers describe him as a typical teenager - he can be calm or lively, he likes some people more than others and he has a definite preference for the ladies!

    He is expected to leave his Devon home for London Zoo within a few months to start a new breeding group.
