13,000 year old Skeleton

On Monday Mexican archaeologists decided that they are going to extract a 13,000 year old Skeleton at the bottom of a very large water hole in Mexico. The skeleton was once a teenage girl. The girl fell and drowned in this hole many years ago. The body was discovered in 2007 but now they have decided to take the body out of the water and study it. Down where they found the body a couple years ago they also found many different animal skeletons that were strange.  The girls skeleton was almost fully assembled still, and the divers are trying to figure out a way to take it out in one piece.

Bobcat

On Monday the 12th of May in Scottsdale Arizona at a spa was a baby bobcat found. The employs noticed a noise coming from the walls of the building. They told their boss and the boss called an electrician to come and figure what that noise is. The electrician came and took down part of the wall where the noise was and he found what they think to be a 7 week old bobcat.  The thoughts they had about how it got there is that sometimes cats and other animals go on roofs to nurse there babies because it safer, and maybe the little bobcat fell down a vent or something and the mother couldn't get it out. They are going to nurse the little baby for a couple weeks and then take it to a facility where it can be raised with other bobcats and then eventually released into the wild.

Prom King

      This girl named Skyler Galliher from Las Vegas, Nevada was crowned Prom King this past weekend.  Some parents and other people don’t think this should have been allowed because she is a straight girl and it’s not “traditional”.  Her and her friend wanted to run together to receive crowns. They both won and the prom king says that a lot of students are inspired by her to stick to what they want and to not give up if you want something bad. She explains that just because it’s a king’s title doesn't mean that girls can’t receive it also.  She gives the example of the president. Just because there hasn't been a girl president yet doesn't mean it’s a man’s title.
