WEIRD NEWS: Lamb on the Lam
The University of Utah had a little lamb, its fleece was white as snow. It was to be delivered to a research facility to be injected with malaria, but the lamb didn't want to go -- and is now on the loose.
University officials say the lamb was one of five brought to the Molecular Biotechnology Building on Monday, but it broke free from its handler and has been on the lam ever since. It's been spotted several times on campus, and some students have tried to wrangle it, but the wily ewe has so far been able to evade capture. Animal control officers believe the escapee is still somewhere near the campus.

- You've got to root for this lamb.
- If it's ever captured, it can't be sent to the research facility. They've got to let it go free.
- Those poor other lambs must be so jealous.
