Smokey the cat, who is belived to have the loudest purr in the world, Pitsford, Northampton, Britain - 21 Feb 2011
Mandatory Credit: Photo by Geoffrey Robinson / Rex Features ( 1288502g )
Un-Purr-lievable: The Cat As Loud As A Boeing 737
Pet cat Smokey is believed to have the loudest purr in the world - with piercing purrs as loud as a lawnmower.
Most cats purr at around 25 decibels but Smokey's powerful purrs average an amazing 80 decibels.
When measured close-up her purrs reach an incredible 92 decibels, equivalent to the noise of a lawnmower, hair dryer or a Boeing 737 coming into land.
Owners Ruth and Mark Adams say Smokey's deafening purrs make it impossible for them to hear the television or radio when she is in the room and they struggle to have telephone conversations.
"She has always been very vocal and purrs at some level nearly all the time," said Ruth, from Pitsford, Northampton.
"She even manages to purr while she eats. The only time she is quiet is when she is asleep.
"When I'm on the phone friends often ask what the loud noise is and they can't believe it is coming from a cat."
Ruth and Mark adopted Smokey from rescue centre NANNA in Northants three years ago for her 10-year-old daughter Amy.
The family has two dogs and two other cats but say 12-year-old Smokey is by far the loudest cat they have ever heard.
"It's either adorable or annoying, depending on what mood you're in and it's very loud," said Ruth, who also has a son, Jordan, 12.
"You don't even have to stroke her to start a purring session; often she'll do it for no reason.
"It can be annoying if her loud purring starts as you are watching television and it has reached a romantic bit in a film, because it's impossible to hear and spoils the moment.
"I don't know why she does it. It doesn't seem to bother her in any way. She's very happy and content, just very loud."
Ruth said Smokey, whose favourite pastimes are eating and sleeping on the window sill, sometimes made herself cough as her...

Cheeky squirrel manages to eat half a coconut suspended on piece of rope, Hindhead, Surrey, Britain - 16 Jan 2011
Mandatory Credit: Photo by Mike Walker / Rex Features ( 1271257b )
A Tough Nut To Crack
According to the saying there's more than one way to crack a nut - something this cheeky squirrel went all out to prove.
When faced with a Mission Impossible - namely nibbling on a coconut suspended above the ground - this grey squirrel wasn't fazed.
Scampering up the pole the tempting treat was hanging from, the nimble squirrel then hung from its toes in a bid to get a paw on the nut.
Finding temptation just out of claw's reach the crafty creature then had to employ some acrobatic manoeuvring.
Eventually it shimmied down the twine the coconut was hanging from - clinging on for grim life as it began to swing.
Despite the precarious position it found itself in, the squirrel still somehow managed to feast on the coconut while desperately holding on.
In doing so it managed to beat Alice Hancock's attempts to stop squirrels stealing the food she puts out for birds in the garden of her home in Hindhead, Surrey.
Alice, 38, rigged up the pole and suspended the coconut from it thinking it would be out of reach of squirrels.
However, it took just a just a few minutes for this cheeky grey to work out how to get its dinner.
Alice said ''I'm determined to get the better of him but its back to the drawing board in my battle of wits with the little pest''.

Freshwater rainbow trout leaping out of the water, Adirondacks, New York, America - 02 Jan 2011
This colourful freshwater rainbow trout leaps out of the water in an extraordinary bid for freedom. The unusual behaviour has very rarely been captured on camera and shows the trout swimming away from predators so quickly that they breach the water's surface. Photographer Brian Pelkey spends days at a time on a lake patiently waiting for the perfect moment to snap the fish flying through the air. The 60-year-old said: "I had the idea to photograph this phenomenon one evening when I was fishing with my friend and fish started flying out of the water. "I half expected one to jump into our canoe. Since then it has been my mission to capture the essence and beauty of that evening in photographs for all to see".

Red crab migration on Christmas Island, Indian Ocean - 01 Dec 2010
Mandatory Credit: Photo by James D. Morgan / Rex Features ( 1254772i )
March Of The Crabs
One of the most amazing migrations in the animal world takes place each year on Christmas Island.
This annual event sees millions of red crabs swarm across the island in the hope of making it to the sea.
Christmas Island lies some 1600 miles north west of Perth in the middle of the Indian Ocean.
While just 1500 people live there it is home to an estimated 120 million-strong crab population.
Most of these are red crabs, which spend most of their time living in burrows on the rainforest floor in order to avoid drying out in the fierce sun.
But when the time is right - according to the tides and phases of the moon - they embark on the journey of their lives.
The mass move is headed by the males, who are quickly followed by the females.
The crabs spend several painstaking days crawling to the ocean, which can be as far away as 9km.
Along the way, from the interior of the island to its coast, they face numerous hazards.
While the human population does the best it can, according to local ranger Max Orchard each year up to half a million crabs never return from their perilous journey.
Many of these casualties fall under the wheels of vehicles as they attempt to traverse local roads or are attacked by yellow crazy ants.
Once the males arrive at the sea they dig special burrows, where mating takes place once the females arrive.
After the deed is done the males begin the arduous journey back inland while the females remain in the burrows for around two weeks - laying eggs and waiting for them to develop.
The eggs are held in a brood pouch - located between the female crab's abdomen and thorax - which can hold as many as 100,000 eggs.
When the time is right, just before dawn at high tide, the egg-laden females descend to the waterline to release their eggs - a proce...

RUN! THE FAMILY THAT GOT TOO CLOSE TO A PROTECTIVE MOTHER HIPPO
A day admiring the wildlife turned into a panicked run to safety for one family when they were charged by a hippo.
The tourists were admiring the view at iSimangaliso Wetland Park, St Lucia, South Africa where a group - or pod- of hippopotamus were enjoying a cooling dip in a waterhole.
But when they strayed onto the cherished grazing area of grass surrounding the water they found themselves at the business end of a disgruntled mother protecting her calf.
Photographer Avi Hirshchfield says: "It was a beautiful day and I was observing the hippos enjoying the water in the sunshine.
"I noticed a family on the other side of the waterhole moving forward trying to get a better view of the hippos. But obviously they strayed too close for the mother hippo with her young calf as she suddenly took off towards them.
"Luckily they moved very quickly as the hippo quickly decided they weren't a threat and backed off."
The unidentified family did well to react quickly as hippos can easily outrun a human, reaching 19mph (30 km/h) despite their stocky shape and short legs.

The Extreme 19th at the Legend Golf and Safari Resort, South Africa - Sep 2009
EXTREME GOLF: THE LONGEST AND HIGHEST PAR 3 IN THE WORLD
The Legend Golf & Safari Resort in South Africa is home to one of the most talked about and unique Par 3 holes in the world - the Extreme 19th.
The luxury resort boasts a championship golf course designed by eighteen of the world's top golfers.
At 8km it is the longest course in Africa and, with two loops of nine holes and large putting greens, it lays at 6,534 metres for daily play.
However, its most talked about feature is the spectacular Extreme 19th hole.
Set high up on the impressive Hanglip Mountain, this is the longest, highest and most dramatic Par 3 in the world.
Accessible only by helicopter, golfers are invited to tee-off from the edge of the mountain in an attempt to hit a hole-in-one a breathtaking 400m below.
From the tee, the flag is also 400m out on the horizontal, which means the ball has to travel 540m through the air to reach the faraway green.
Taking the shot requires no shortage of courage as players teeter close to the edge of the mammoth hillside.
In total, it takes almost 30 seconds for a ball to fall from cliff top down to the map of Africa shaped green below.
Players can follow the flight of their ball thanks to technology in the form of four separate cameras and the latest tracking equipment.
Those taking part have a total of four balls and four attempts before being whisked back down the mountain to play out the hole.
For any lucky golfer who does manage to score a hole in one their reward is US$1m.
So far no one has achieved that golfing feat but a number of people have successfully made a Par 3.
The first was 2008 Open Champion Padraig Harrington, inaugurating an exclusive golfing club that only boasts a few se...

Hamilton Splashes Out On New Ride
HAMILTON SPLASHES OUT ON NEW RIDE
Formula One champion Lewis Hamilton has splashed out on a vehicle that is a bit larger than his usual mode of transport: a GBP 5m yacht.
The 23-year-old plans to moor his new 90ft ride in Monaco, where he can soak up the rays with Pussycat Doll girlfriend Nicole Scherzinger, 29.
Lewis has even had it painted black and silver to represent his team, McLaren, with whom he has a five-year racing contract worth GBP 70m.
The yacht, boasting luxury cabins, lounges, plasma TVs and a hi-fi system, is being finished at the Sunseeker's Yard in Portland, Dorset, before it is transported to the Mediterranean.

Section Of Iraqi Supergun Loaded On To A Lorry At Raf Sealand In Clwyd. Siezed By Customs At Teeside Docks Two Years Ago. The Harp Gun Developed By Dr Gerald Bull Was The Basis For The Iraqi 'supergun' Parts Of Which Were Manufactured In Britain And Smuggled Into Iraq. Twenty Years Ago Dr Gerald Bull's Harp Weapon Had A 172ft 16-inch Barrel Longer Than The Teesport Find But Less Than Half The Bore. The Mammoth Steel Gun Barrel Has Astonished The World's Artillery Experts Who Belive It Would Kill More Iraqi Loaders Than Any Enemy. To Fire It Would Require 200 People And A Space As Large As Wembley Stadium. And With An Hour Needed To Reload--enough Time For Anyone To Locate And Destroy It--it Must Be At Most A One Or Two-shot Weapon. But Using Conventional Explosives It Could Target Israel Or Iran--and With A Rocket-assisted Device It Could Reach Large Areas Of Europe The Soviet Union And North Africa.
