|
| TERRYGLASS - 2024-04-16 I don't know if you know about the story of Molly the magpie and Peggy the staffie but anyhoo just a quick background of the story |
|
| TERRYGLASS - 2024-04-16 there was this magpie who this lady in Queensland found who had fallen out of her nest as a baby and the lady raised it and got her healthy but Molly the magpie had gotten too use to being with people and so couldn't be released back into the wild |
|
| TERRYGLASS - 2024-04-16 she wouldn't have survived as she didn't know how to fend for herself being how she was raised with people. Anyhoo Molly the magpie befriended the lady's Staffordshire Bull Terrier named Peggy and Molly and Peggy became best mates |
|
| TERRYGLASS - 2024-04-16 The pair became famous world wide via TicToc videos I believe. It was cute watching Molly jumping around and playing with Peggy, and you could tell they really got on well. Molly would even copy Peggy's bark. it was funny seeing and hearing a magpie barking like a dog 🤣 |
|
| TERRYGLASS - 2024-04-16 until the mean ol neighbour complained 😡grrrr😡you see in Australia not everyone is allowed to keep native fauna (animals) as pets, you need a special permit...so the Department of National Parks and Wildlife came around and took Molly away, separating the two pals |
|
| TERRYGLASS - 2024-04-16 well as you could imagine this upset a lot of people, not only here in my home state of Queensland but all around the world. soon people were setting up petitions etc all in an effort to reunite Molly and Peggy again. |
|
| TERRYGLASS - 2024-04-16 Long story short the state premier of Queensland (similar to a state Governor) decided that if the lady who took such good care of Molly for the past 4 years or so gets herself through a training course and gets herself the relevant permit then she could have Molly in her care once again. |
|
| TERRYGLASS - 2024-04-16 anyhoo the Premier expedited the paperwork and fast tracked it and now Molly the magpie is back home with her best pal Peggy the staffie. |
|
| TERRYGLASS - 2024-04-16 if you haven't seen the story then I recommend you do yourself a favour and look it up. it's definitely an Aw moment. |
