Many thanked Mr Kaswan for rescuing the pangolin and for acquainting them of such an animal species. One user wrote, ''Keep up the good work. your photographic skills are excellent.'' Another commented, ''I strongly believe that for poaching and other crimes involving wildlife, the laws need to get more stringent. Poachers and animal part smugglers know that Indian laws are soft when it comes to these crimes, and hence they continue doing it. Life sentence or death with poachers.'' A third added, ''Most beautiful and cool species created having its role in this planet should be protected.'' There are eight species of pangolins, four in Asia and four in Africa. All of them are protected by international treaties, while two are endangered, according to CNN. The main demand for pangolin scales is from Asia. In Vietnam and China, their meat is prized, while their scales are used for medicinal purposes. Some cultures believe that pangolin scales can cure cancer and increase lactation in women. https://ift.tt/An6mGje February 20, 2023 at 10:56PM NDTV News-Offbeat https://www.ndtv.com

''The Arm Should Be...'': Nagaland Minister's Witty Post Triggers Laughter https://ift.tt/jUVmNpJ Nagaland minister Temjen Imna Along has displayed his witty sense of humour on several occasions through amusing social media posts. His posts, laced with comicality, also offer insights into current issues. The minister also doesn't shy away from cracking a joke about himself. On Sunday, the minister shared a picture of him on his official Twitter handle along with a witty caption. He captioned the pic as ''Somebody really said that...The arm should be long! Rest, you guys are sensible.'' See the pic here: किसीने सच ही कहा था कि... हाथ लंबा होना चाहिए !? बाकी तो आपलोग समझदार हो ही? pic.twitter.com/ZjE2Vtty1c — Temjen Imna Along (@AlongImna) February 19, 2023 In the picture, he is seen reaching out to another person by extending his arm. Playing on the words ''Long Arm Of The Law'' (Kanoon Ke Haath Lambe Hote Hain) which is often heard in Bollywood movies, Mr Along wittily implies that a lawmaker's hands should be long so that no criminal can escape from the clutches of law. The tweet has gone viral with more than 17, 000 likes, more than 750 retweets and several remarks. Users lauded the minister's amusing tweet and shared their thoughts in the comments section. One user wrote, ''Your tweets show the level of sense of humour... Fantabulous sir...Wishing & praying for your win in upcoming elections.'' Another commented, ''A politician with negligible haters. Really enjoy your tweets.'' A third said, ''You are the most lovable politician sir, and I hope that you don't lose it because of your chosen profession ... if I was the registered voter in your constituency, I would have definitely voted for you.... wish you a lot of success...'' A fourth added, ''your sense of humour and witty nature makes you different than others leaders.'' A few days back, his humorous post about a helicopter he was riding went viral, triggering laughter. If one zooms in on the image, one can see that it says "one person at a time." Prior to that, the minister posted an intriguing Valentine's Day message on Twitter. In a tweet, the Minister of Higher Education & Tribal Affairs wrote, "Freedom is a gift not meant for everyone. Let us cherish our day. Hail singles!" https://ift.tt/oPkYyZK February 19, 2023 at 10:47PM NDTV News-Offbeat https://www.ndtv.com

AI Chatbot Calls User "Wrong, Confused And Rude", Conversation Goes Viral https://ift.tt/Og8QySf It is no lie that AI powered chatbots have taken over our lives. People have been using these bots to finish their work, students are using the same to write assignments and complete homework while another section of users are utilising the new technology to even make dishes from leftover ingredients. However, in a strange occurrence, Microsoft's newly launched AI-integrated search engine Bing argued and disrespected a user who asked which nearby theaters were screening 'Avatar 2: The Way of the Water.' Jon Uleis took to Twitter and said, "My new favorite thing - Bing's new ChatGPT bot argues with a user, gaslights them about the current year being 2022, says their phone might have a virus, and says "You have not been a good user" Why?
