Darwin knows what cameras look like and how to avoid them. From inside his enclosure, the monkey of Toronto Ikea parking lot fame spots us out of the corner of his eye and bolts under the table. The now 13-year-old Japanese macaque has seen enough of the spotlight to last a lifetime. Darwin was just a baby when he was found in a North York Ikea parking lot in 2012, wearing a diaper and shearling coat, and seized by animal services.

Warren Ellis credits his ability to sink his teeth into an idea as the secret of his decades-long creative partnership with Nick Cave - though Cave likes to joke it's because he was "fun to take drugs with".

Considering he was about 3,300 miles into his cross-country ride, had been in the saddle for three months and was deeply fatigued, no one would blame him for not immediately identifying the mysterious and tiny thing he spied on a wicked hot late July morning while riding on a rural road outside of Council, Virginia. Perhaps he was imagining it.

To lure Goose out of its hiding spot, the Environmental Police used hardboiled eggs, then pieces of chicken. 'It was pretty surreal to do so,' Amati said.
