A Dog With Worlds Biggest Ears

Doggie Dumbo: He's the hound with the world's biggest ears that will make you believe he can fly

One look at Harbor the black-and-tan coonhound, and you’ll believe a dog can fly.

Guinness World Records has named him the possessor of the longest canine ears on the planet. His left one measures 12¼in while the right is longer at 13½in.

The breed was developed to hunt raccoons, with the long ears said to help by sweeping scents towards the nose.

World record: Harbor the coonhound has the largest canine ears on the planet, with the left measuring 12.25inches and the right 13.5inches

But Harbor has had a lifelong struggle with his colossal ears, frequently tripping over them as a puppy and rolling down the stairs.

Now though, the purebred has grown into his lengthy lugholes, which have made him a celebrity.

Owner Jennifer Wert, of Boulder, Colorado, said: ‘Cars will literally stop in the street to take a closer look and get a picture.

‘Most days I forget how oddly long his ears are,’ added Jennifer. ‘He’s a phenomenon in the world and he creates smiles wherever we go.’

Harbor's ear-span is greater than the smallest road-legal car, which is 26 inches wide and also greater than the height of the world's shortest man, Junrey Balawing

Harbor takes the new title from Tigger (13.5 inch ears), a bloodhound from Illinois, who sadly passed away of old age two years ago.

According to Guinness World Records 2012, Harbor’s ear-span is greater than the height of the world’s shortest man, Junrey Balawing, who is 23.5 inches tall.

His ears are also wider than the smallest road-legal car, which is 26 inches wide, and you could comfortably fit the world’s shortest dog, 6 inch long Brandy, who is also from the US, on each of Harbor’s ears twice.

The latest edition of Guinness World Records is published on September 15.

Can You Eat These Carrots?

Face it, you just couldn't eat the cutest carrot... even if it does look like an alien

She's been dubbed The Baby Whisperer for helping hordes of women realise their dreams of starting a family against medical odds.

Now it seems acupuncturist Yvonne Darnell, 46, has used her special skills to give life to one of her own carrots - which bears an uncanny resemblance to an angel-faced alien.

The 'Sussex Stork' dug up the unusual legume from her Burgess Hill garden.

Alien roots: Acupuncturist Yvonne Darnell, dubbed The Baby Whisperer for the number of women she has helped to conceive, has grown a carrot with a distinctly intergalactic appearance

With green shoots for its hair and two dangling tips for its legs, it's easy to see how she has become attached to the arm-less root vegetable.

Yvonne has helped 80 women, who had previously been told they had no hope in having children, conceive.

Her first success story was a woman who had endured eight failed rounds of IVF treatment.

With green shoots for its hair and two dangling tips for its legs, it's easy to see how Yvonne has become attached to the arm-less root vegetable.

Other crunchy carrots to have hit the headlines in recent years include a five-fingered specimen grown by Peter Jackson, 66, in Shropshire, and a Buzz Lightyear lookalike found by Clive Williams in Henley-on-Thames, Oxon.

In 2010 a U.S.S. Starship Enterprise-shaped potato was spotted at the National Gardening Show in Shepton Mallet, Somerset.

Amateur gardener Peter Glazebrook pulled up the giant spud - weighing a whopping 8lb 4oz.

Baby-shaped pears, a parsnip that looked like a witch and a potato teddy bear have all also been discovered.

Brave Chinese Workers

Chinese workers are building a path enveloping the mountain. The work is very dangerous and scary, it's amazing that they are working without a net, only a helmet, which does not help in the fall. Apparently they are about trying not to think, and all the powers invested in the construction, good fellows after all they are.
