From [www.bbc.com]:
"The Krakow Animal Welfare Society said the incident was genuine.

Writing on Facebook, the organisation said its officers had asked the desperate caller whether the unidentified animal, which had been in the tree for two days, could be a bird of prey.

The woman responded that it looked more like a "lagun" - Polish for lagoon - before remembering the correct word "legwan", or iguana.

Arriving on the scene, however, the inspectors found the headless and limbless object in a lilac tree - a pastry, probably thrown out of a window to feed birds."

A croissant, to be exact. To paraphrase Monty Python, "That's no ordinary croissant!"

"In science it often happens that scientists say, 'You know that's a really good argument; my position is mistaken,' and then they would actually change their minds and you never hear that old view from them again. They really do it. It doesn't happen as often as it should, because scientists are human and change is sometimes painful. But it happens every day. I cannot recall the last time something like that happened in politics or religion." (1987) -- Carl Sagan

Gotta watch out for those soggy bottom pastries.

Those things stalk me and my diet every day.

Very dangerous, give them a wide berth.

Yes, but have you ever been attacked by a piece of fruit?

Subpar croissants are terrifying.

at Costco, they hunt in packs of 12

Luckily those were suffocated before they could do some real harm. I've never seen so many at once, who knew they were social pastries?

.....what are they.....Polishing......??
