Animal Action Around the City

Was this baby lamb a little too eager for the city's Farm Aid concert? Because she was found wandering around the Bronx yesterday morning. Julio Rivera, who saw her near his car, chased her in order to get a hold of her, but then the lamb chased him back! Newsday reported, "The spectacle lasted half an hour until Rivera got the upper hand and corraled Lucky Lady in a parking lot. Responding police officers used camera phones to take pictures of themselves next to the sheep." Hee! The lamb was taken to Animal Care and Control, which determined she is 7 months old and renamed her "Lucky Lady" - they think she escaped from an auction or slaughterhouse. Lucky Lady will be headed to a farm sanctuary upstate. more ›

Fun, Fearless, Feathered: Pale Male & Lola Head to Central Park West

Screw Paula Zahn. The city's most famous bird couple, red-tailed hawks, Pale Male and Lola whose living arrangements were a hotnest of controversy a year and a half ago, are now nesting at the swank Beresford at 211 Central Park West. Right in front of Helen Gurley Brown's apartment, and though the legendary Cosmopolitan editor loves the birds, her husband, producer David Brown, is not a fan. It turns out that Lincoln Karim, who photographs the hawks and maintains the Pale Male website, saw the birds outside the Beresford; then Karim left photographs of the birds with the Beresford doorman to give to whoever lived at the top of the building. While the Browns are apparently arguing over the hawks, other celeb residents of the Beresford are pro-hawk, including Glenn Close and Jerry Seinfeld told the Daily News, "I love the hawks! I can't get enough of the hawks." As Pale Male and Lola forced a swank Fifth Avenue co-op to construct a fancy nest for them, it might be interesting to see how the Beresford reacts to their new, fine, feathered friends. more ›

927 Fifth Avenue co-op owners Paula Zahn and her husband Richard Cohen for , according to the Post.

Now, Karim's lawyer says that Cohen made up the story (but Karim is glad that Zahn dropped the initial charges) and is looking for $1 million in damages. That would buy a lot of Pale Male surveillance equipment. more ›
