At least 50 cows were mysteriously found dead near Landaduali village under Aska block in Ganjam District on Thursday. The incident has triggered panic among the locals.

According to reports, five cowmen of the village were engaged in grazing over hundreds of cows this morning. The cattle were seen grazing just like another day, but their behaviour changed after a few minutes and they suddenly fell to the ground.

Farmers and concerned residents rushed to the area to find out how such a tragedy could have happened with their cattle.

The Indonesian Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysical Agency (BMKG) said the wave was not caused by an earthquake, but was possibly the result of volcanic activity at Mount Krakatoa.

Fish

Thousands of dead fish wash up in Rio de Janeiro lagoon

DEAD FISH
The lagoon has seen similar fish die-offs in previous years and biologists believe that extreme heat is the culprit.

Residents of a luxury, high-end neighbourhood in Rio de Janeiro awoke Friday to the unpleasant odour of 13 tonnes of dead fish floating in the water of the Rodrigo de Freitas lagoon.

One of the city's picture postcard locations, the lagoon has suffered similar fish die-offs in previous years and biologists believe that extreme heat is the culprit.

Mass die-offs, or "kills", happen periodically throughout the world. They can be caused by pollution or toxic spills, but can also be triggered by natural phenomena, such as hot weather.

Shark attacks
A scuba diver is dead after he was attacked by what is believed to have been a shark in the waters off Puerto Peñasco, Sonora, on Tuesday.

Nahum Verdugo, 37, had gone fishing with friends in an area known as Haway, 10 kilometers southeast of Isla San Jorge. Local police said he was attacked as soon as he entered the water.

His companions saw his body floating on the surface and when they brought him on board their boat realized he was missing a leg.

They rushed him to Puerto Peñasco where he was pronounced dead.


The victim, a resident of Puerto Peñasco, was a commercial and sport fishing diver.

Giant dust is spreading across the world, defying the laws of physics

dust earth sattelite
Giant particles of dust are being spread across the globe, and the physical forces responsible are still up in the air, hidden somewhere in the wind.

Whatever it is, this mysterious influence is so strong, it can transport particles 50 times bigger than we ever thought possible, carrying these huge pieces all the way from the arid Sahara Desert to the tropical Caribbean.

It's an achievement that should defy the laws of physics, which is rarely a good sign. It probably means we've gotten something wrong along the way, and in our ignorance, we may have overlooked an important driver of climate change.

On December 19, 2018, YouTube user 'Sean Feighn' shared video footage of weird noises he heard in the skies of Greenville, South Carolina:

This video was taken shortly after 1 a.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 18th, 2018 in Greenville, SC. Heard this noise faintly from inside my house, stepped outside and took this. It was this constant sound with a lower noise similar to a helicopter rotor like sound going on for 20 minutes straight.

I increased the video volume 4x so you can hear it better. Posted it to my story on instagram and a follower of mine in the area heard it as well. No one knows what exactly it was. I've heard everything to an industrial plant, to construction, to biblical signs, to atmospheric pressure.

What really got me was this---I was looking through youtube videos of sounds in the sky in Dec. 2018 and found a video someone took in Canada of the same exact sound 2 days prior to when I heard it. Here's the link.

Please, if anyone has any explanations comment below.

A few days ago giant waves slammed into the California coast with expectations for conditions so extreme that the National Weather Service in the San Francisco Bay tweeted, "STAY WELL BACK FROM THE OCEAN OR RISK CERTAIN DEATH." The urgency highlights the unusual risk posed by this round of mega-swells.


A local resident, Joe Como, comments in the video below that the waves were, "the biggest he had seen in 40 years living in the Bay area."
