Festive Sheep Finds Owner

A sheep wearing a festive holiday sweater was found wandering the streets of Omaha.

The sheep, named Gage, is often walked on a leash and shares a barn with two chickens at home.

This is the first time Gage has escaped, his owner said, and he will now be spending more time inside to prevent this from happening again.

First Test Tube Penguin Born

Penguin "184" was hatched at San Diego Sea World.

The chick was hatched 12 weeks ago and is the first penguin to be successfully produced through artificial insemination.

This technology could greatly help the penguin, which, due to oil spills, is considered a "near threatened" species.

It is also intended to increase genetic diversity in captive penguin populations.
