This Week in Weird News: Dental Hygiene Edition

4. Man rapes pregnant cow in Zamboanga City

8List-wiw-jul-8-4

Via imgur.com

In Zamboanga City, a farmer claims that his pregnant cow was raped. In a report by ABS-CBN, farmer Carmelito Isidro claims he saw a man raping his cow when he was on his way back to his hut. Upon seeing Isidro, the suspect immediately fled into a bushy area while trying to fix his pants. Let that image sink in.

The good news? The suspect left behind his jacket and cellphone and it will be only a matter of time before he gets identified.

Whatever a cow is wearing or what it looks like is not an invitation to harass it. Stop cow-calling and harassment now.

 

3. Doctors remove 14-pound hairball from woman’s stomach

The hairball recovered from the stomach of Sophie Cox. See SWNS story SWHAIR; A mum has told how pulling out and swallowing her hair left her with a hairball the size of a brick in her stomach. 23-year-old Sophie Cox suffers from trichotillomania, with trichophagia – the compulsion to eat and pull out her own hair. After a brief spell of the condition as a toddler Sophie thought she’d beaten it for good – until she noticed bald patches head six years ago and realised she was tugging and chewing her locks in her sleep. And in November medics discovered that swallowing so many strands had left Sophie, mum to Alice, who’s 20 months old, with a giant hairball in her stomach that was gradually killing her.

Via Huffington Post

British woman Sophie Cox suffered from intense abdominal pains. The reason? A giant, 14-pound ball of human hair which built up for over 7 years from eating her strands.

Cox was diagnosed six years ago with trichotillomania, a condition where sufferers feel an impulse to pull out their hair, and trichophagia, where sufferers have an urge to eat their hair. Cox said she had to pull and eat her hair whenever she was stressed.

By October 2015, Cox couldn’t eat without vomiting and her stomach swelling up. Doctors initially diagnosed her condition with gallstones and stomach cancer, and it wasn’t until an endoscopy last November that they discovered the hairball lingering in her stomach.

The hairball was removed during a six-hour operation.

 

2. Alligators now show up in trees and no one is safe

GATOR IN A TREE! Yep, it’s real. Tuesday in Cape Coral. Ronald S. says “thought it was an iguana, until I got close” pic.twitter.com/qF5qRuJVs0

Alligators can now inflict death from above. From trees, to be exact.

Ronald Saracino of Florida took a picture of an alligator on a tree. He initially thought it was a lizard, but upon closer inspection was actually a 5-foot alligator.

Surprisingly, tree-climbing is actually a common behaviour among alligators and crocodiles. Extinct species also were even more adapted to climbing trees than those that are alive today. Researchers say that alligators and crocodiles do this to regulate body temperature and get a better scope of potential prey.

Meanwhile, our crocodiles in congress are still developing a better scope to screw Filipinos over.

 

1. Prison is bad for Bong Revilla’s dental health because life is not fair

8List-wiw-jul-8-1

Via Inquirer

Former Senator Ramon “Bong” Revilla, who’s currently in jail for the pork barrel case, is asking the court for permission to undergo a 3-day dental procedure, the Inquirer reports.

In April, Revilla was granted a leave to get a CT scan on his teeth, in which several cavities were found by his dentist, Dr. Steve Mark Gan. The former actor was advised to get an implant to prevent further complications.

The world is not fair and we hope that Revilla gets the treatment he so badly needs. All the other prisoners in the Philippines who are poor and suffering can just suck it up.
