The animals cried the day Steve died - Exclusive

Brisbane, Australia, Tuesday - "The animals cried the day Steve died" said animal trainer Pete Wilson this morning - see yesterday's News in Brief post. "Of course it's hard to tell underwater, but I swear that the stingray which killed Steve cried after it had dealt him the fatal blow". "I'll never forget the pitiful, soulful, look in that poor creature's eyes shortly before we bludgeoned it to death for what it had done to Steve". "Call me a sentimental old fool if you wish, but I'm sure that that stringray, of the family Daysyatidae, loved Steve just as much as we did, and it died with a deep sense of regret and guilt". Reports were being received that the stringray has been brought ashore and will be stuffed, before going on display in a Brisbane museum later in the year. "It's what Steve would had wanted" said a fan, who was inconsolable at Steve's loss.
