See Lion

Take A Paws From Writing

Zoo keepers at Ningbo Zoo, China, say they have trained a sea lion to write in Chinese. Staff say they spent three months teaching the sea lion, called Peter, to write the Chinese character representing a bull - and can stamp it with his own "sea lion" seal.

FOOTNOTE: Seal of approval.
