"The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and Health Canada, in cooperation with Infantino LLC, today announced a recall of 1 million baby slings in the U.S. and 15,000 in Canada because three infant deaths occurred in these slings in 2009, according to a March 24 CPSC press release. Infantino is providing free replacement slings for the recalled "SlingRider" and "Wendy Bellissimo" models. CPSC is advising consumers to immediately stop using the recalled slings for infants younger than four months old because they pose a suffocation hazard."

"The snail-manipulating flatworm (Leucochloridium paradoxum) grows and multiplies inside the snail. Once ready to move on to its next host, the worms push up into the snail's tentacles, making them swell and squirm, mimicking the action of bugs that birds like to eat. As the snail crawls, blindly, into the sunlight, a passing bird is likely to swoop down to snatch a tasty tentacle or two. The worm-infested meal will then infect the bird, which passes it onto other snails via dubious droppings."
