I assume that as it's in a pot and despite it's obvious rarity, this individual was 'collected'?

Now, at last, someone citing the Daily Mash for scientific stories, rather than Principia Scientific (sic)

At least the Mash owns up to being fake.
Try the Suffolk Gazzette for the 'Penguin on a Suffolk Beach' story.

yes, the "Southend News Network" is another spoof, but not obvious.
Easy to make a complete arse of yourself quoting stuff from their pages.
