While all the people in China's Yunan County were distracted by the fight against the infection, a gang of 14 elephants invaded the local village in search of food. In the end, however, tragedy was averted: the first thing the animals did was find 30 kilograms of corn wine, which made them so drunk that they fell asleep in a nearby tea plantation.

Vegetarians fart more than non-vegetarians. In 2021, Spanish scientists set out to examine the phenomenon that's always been presumed: plant-based diets cause people to fart more. The researchers concluded that people who follow a plant-based diet fart more and have larger stools than people following a standard Western diet (diet low in fruits and vegetables, and high in fat and sodium). The results revealed that those following a plant-based diet farted seven times more per day and had stools twice the size as those following a Western diet on average. Farting is a sign of a healthy diet and healthy colon, said the scientists.
