The consequences of global warming -- 300 circus performers dead

From FOX News:
Frost bites: Cold weather kills 300 acrobatic insects at German flea circus
An entire troupe of performing fleas has fallen victim to the freezing temperatures currently gripping Germany.

Flea circus director Robert Birk says he was shocked to find all of his 300 fleas dead inside their transport box Wednesday morning.

The circus immediately scrambled to find a new batch so it could fulfill its engagements at an open-air fair in the town of Mechernich-Kommern in western Germany.
And the fleas were housed in an unheated space why? Where's PETA? Where's Greenpeas? Posted by DaveH at March 31, 2013 9:23 PM
