The cubs, an extremely rare sub-species of lion, were born at the Zoo. White lions are unique to the Timbavati area of South Africa and are not albinos but a genetic rarity Picture: AP Purrfect whites Brain signal clue to slow motion Female hormone makes men angry Its not just Hollywood that can make action sequences slow down for added effect scientists can do it too. By boosting one kind of brain wave, they were able to make people move in slow motion. Participants actions were up to ten per cent slower when their beta wave was manipulated using a tiny electrical current, a team at University College London found. Men are actually being girly when they act in an aggressive or territorial way. Those brain networks linked to male behaviour are controlled by female hormone oestrogen, US researchers have found. Female mice given extra oestrogen as babies also evolved the same brain patterns as males and showed the same territorial and aggressive behaviour. traffic was on the road to mohair as llamas hit M50By ROSS MCDONAGHCOW! Donkey! Ape! just a selection of the animal names youll hear shout- ed from the busy Red Cow junction. Llama was a rarity, until yesterday, when five of them wandered on to the M50, causing an 8km tailback. the southAmerican mammals, along with three goat accomplices, busted out of a nearby circus, forcing the junc- tion to shut down for more than half an hour. We had a huge number of calls from the public, as well as calls from Garda who were unsure if they could believe the reports they were hearing, said Nicola Hudson, AA Roadwatch Con- troller. But sure enough they could be seen on the traffic cameras. Despite limited previous experience, Garda managed to corral the animals back onto a trailer 50 minutes later. Circus owner Alexander scholl said his animals bolted when fuel delivery men left a gate open. But rival circus owners branded the incident a publici- ty stunt Mr scholls Circus sydney has previously lost elephants and a wallaby. theres no way this was a publicity stunt, he claimed. If these llamas hit a car and killed somebody, who are they going to arrest, me or the llamas? the llamas were not the first animals to invade Irelands roads. Last August, Gina the monkey caused traffic may- hem on the N11 when she escaped from a local sanctuary and in Decem- ber 2005 a cargo of 5,000 chickens got free when a truck overturned in Co Cavan. Following the incident, bookmaker Paddy Power began taking bets on the next animal to cause motorway havoc. Horses are favourite at 9/4, with dogs at 3/1. the longest shot at 500/1 was of course the return of the Celtic tiger.
